Senator-elect Jim Justice's team denies report that Babydog is banned from the Senate floor.

Babydog and her team released an exclusive statement to Planet Chronicle Digital, stating that they were the ones who got the most headlines even though Senator-elect Jim Justice was not in D.C. today. They hope that the focus will be on fixing the nation's problems.

Babydog Justice, the unofficial mascot of Justice's campaign for Senate, was initially banned from the Senate floor. However, the Senator-elect has since corrected the record.

According to Axios' reporting, Justice inquired about bringing his pup onto the Senate floor during their coverage.

The Senator-Elect has never intended to bring Baby Dog to the Senate floor, as clarified by Justice's office in an email. The confusion arose from a misunderstood joke during the Senate orientation on Tuesday.

Senator-elect Moreno of Ohio asked if dogs were allowed on the Senate floor, but it was clarified that only babies up to one year are allowed, in accordance with House of Representatives rules.

Justice stated, "I am aware that many of you desire to meet my furry companion. Therefore, if Babydog could make an appearance here." Babydog has been a constant presence in West Virginia politics since she was gifted to Justice by his children during Christmas in 2019.

Senator-elect Justice announced that Babydog will be a frequent visitor to his office in Washington, and invited everyone to come by and meet her. He stated that Babydog, who has brought joy to many people in West Virginia, will continue to do so in the nation's capital.
