The House of Representatives passed an anti-lynching bill on a near-unanimous basis on Monday, with just three House Republicans voting against the measure.

Republican Reps. Thomas Massie of Kentucky, Chip Roy of Texas, and Andrew Clyde of Georgia voted against the Emmett Till Anti-Lynching Act of 2022, which would designate lynching — extrajudicial killings typically committed against Black Americans, particularly during the Jim Crow era — as a federal hate crime.

Congress has never before codified lynching as a hate crime.

(It still has to pass the Senate, and it is questionable that republicans will let it have cloture, to come up for a vote.)
