Democrats around him stayed seated, holdings signs that read “false” and “stop Musk” — in reference to Texas billionaire Elon Musk’s mass firings of federal employees.

I was aware of Al Green being removed and his stand was exceptional. It is the other six that the meme implies exist that aren't ringing a bell.

If they are mentioned in that article then I'm blind or misreading.

Their names* aren't mentioned in the article, but that doesn't mean they didn't take a stand. They were holding signs. Bernie, AOC, etc., have also taken a stand.
