Two Democratic lawmakers are floating the idea of holding a screening of the upcoming “Barbie” movie at the Library of Congress.

Rep. Maxwell Frost (D-Fla.) suggested the idea of hosting a screening of the widely anticipated film featuring Ryan Gosling and Margot Robbie. Though the “Barbie” movie is slated to be released on July 21, it has garnered widespread enthusiasm.

Other companies, such as Coldstone Creamery, have partnered with Warner Bros. and Mattel to release a “Barbie”-flavored ice cream called, “Pink Cotton Candy,” according to People magazine.

While the “Barbie” movie has garnered a lot of attention, many Republican lawmakers have come out against the movie, pointing out that it allegedly shows a map depicting China’s dominance over the South China Sea, using the widely disputed nine-dash line.

IJR reached out to Frost for a statement but did not receive a response back prior to publication.
