House GOP Blocks Bill to Ban Racial Discrimination

“Late Monday, the House tried to use fast-track procedures to pass a bill barring race-based discrimination against Black people for how they wear their hair. It prevailed 235-188, but that’s short of the 2/3 margin needed to pass it,” Politico reports.“Just 15 House Republicans voted yes. That’s despite the fact the bill passed by voice vote in September 2020.”
