Rights Bill Expands Federal Jury Selection And Anti-Violence Measures
The House Judiciary Committee bill would reform federal jury selection to include a broader cross section, adding more Negro jurors, and tighten penalties for racially motivated violence. It would create a master and qualified juror wheel, bar race or other status as qualifications, and allow challenges to discriminatory methods. It also updates two Civil War era laws with tougher penalties and a new section defining racial violence, outlining specific acts deemed criminal.
