    March 1 (UPI) -- House Democrats have failed to pass legislation to
    ban discrimination against people with hairstyles that are commonly associated with a particular race or national origin.

    The lawmakers on Monday voted 235-188 in favor of the Creating a
    Respectful and Open World for Natural Hair Act, but it did not
    attract enough Republican votes to secure the super-majority needed
    to approve the legislation upon the fast-track route the Democrats
    had put it on.

    The bill, introduced by Rep. Bonnie Coleman, D-N.J., would
    specifically prohibit discrimination against those participating in
    federally assisted programs, including housing, public
    accommodations and employment, based on the texture of one's hair or hairstyle.

    Coleman in a statement following the vote accused Republicans of
    succumbing to the climate of division and obstruction by not passing
    the CROWN Act on the final day of Black History Month.

    What a stupid bill.

    It's one of those (many) things that in no way
    require a LAW - much less a federal law. Now it's
    very bad form to screw people over their fuckin'
    hair however and smart employees will abandon
    ship if their asshole bosses are THAT bad ......

    Let's put it this way ... The House cast a number of
    votes for Speaker for Byron Donalds (R-Fla) last week
    and even McCarthy bent over to please him (the deal
    included a seat on the Steering Committee). Donalds
    is 'black' AND has 'black hair'. So - if the more-
    right Republicans have nothing against "black hair"
    employers are total racist assholes if THEY do.
    Do biz elsewhere.
