While Americans suffer from the Biden administration’s failures that have led to conflicts in Ukraine, gas price increases, and a massive inflation boom, Democrats have other priorities. On Friday, Pelosi held a vote in the House of Representatives to pass a “hair discrimination” bill.
Breitbart reports:
The House passed H.R. 2116, the Creating a Respectful and Open World for Natural Hair (CROWN) Act of 2021, 235-189.
Democrats overwhelmingly supported the legislation, and Republicans opposed the bill.
The legislation would prohibit alleged discrimination based on a person’s hair texture or hairstyle that is commonly associated with a particular race or national origin.
House Republican leadership released a whip notice recommending a vote against the bill:
- Federal law already prohibits disparate treatment of one individual compared to another based on race, color, or national origin, which includes grooming and appearance policies if applied in a discriminatory manner, rendering this legislation unnecessary and duplicative.
- This legislation previously failed under suspension of the rules on February 28th by a vote of 235 – 188.
