On July 3, 2024, the DPP caucus occupied the chairman's stand and the meeting was suspended. During the review of the election recall law amendment draft at the Interior Committee of the Legislative Yuan on the 4th, the DPP caucus preemptively occupied the chairman's stand, leading to intense disputes and a temporary suspension of the meeting. While People First Party (PFP) legislator Mac Yu-chen was absent, DPP caucus director Chen Zhihan appeared on a live broadcast and accused the Green Camp of being salary thieves, sparking dissatisfaction from Green Party legislator Wang Ding-yu who counter-accused Mac Yu-chen of not even attending, saying 'You not only steal salaries but also steal dragon fruits; should we steal small watermelons?' Amidst the chaos, Wang Ding-yu pointed out the illogicality of caucus officials coming to scold attending legislators as salary thieves, emphasizing that missing legislator Mac Yu-chen was not just a salary thief but also a fruit thief. The situation escalated with Chen Zhihan urging an end to the spreading of rumors and calling on DPP members to focus on their legislative responsibilities.
