Columbia, S.C. (AP) -- Rep. Ralph Norman, one of the three congressional Republicans suing Speaker Nancy Pelosi over fines for not wearing masks during a vote on the U.S. House floor, has contracted a breakthrough case of COVID-19, the second member of South Carolina's delegation to do so.

Norman, who has said he has been fully vaccinated since February, tweeted that he began experiencing minor symptoms of COVID-19 on Thursday, tested positive for the virus that day and would quarantine for 10 days.

Representing South Carolina's 5th District since 2017, Norman is part of a federal lawsuit against Pelosi over a mandate earlier this year that members wear masks while on the House floor.

Last week, Norman and U.S. Reps. Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia and Thomas Massie of Kentucky sued Pelosi, seeking a determination that their $500 fines — issued because they went maskless during a May vote — are unconstitutional and should be rescinded.

He is living proof as to why Speaker Pelosi instituted the mask mandate.

[Budi]

10. Yup. All that was asked is that he wear a mask.

[JohnSJ]

6. Be ashamed if his symptoms worsened. WTF did he think think the masks were for, and no doubt

many of the people he encounters weren’t vaccinated

[Zorro]

22. Yes it would just be so sad if he just FOAD, wouldn't

[LiberalFighter]

7. He claims he was vaccinated but has he provided proof?

[Rustyeye77]

He’ll find some bullshit excuse.

He’ll claim he got it in his home district .

I hope he gets a wakeup call, the moron. I see he claims he's fully vaccinated, but anyone want to take bets on that?

[Maggiemayhem]

27. Most of them are vaccinated. They just don't care if other people get sick.

[ProfessorGAC]

34. Most As In "All"

Well maybe not all, but I'm betting 95% or better.
They got their shot, but keep supporting the resistance.
As long as they got theirs. Which is the conservative mantra.
