Civil Rights Bill Tightens Ban On Race Discrimination
A House Judiciary subcommittee reportedly adds a sweeping ban on racial discrimination in public accommodations to the administration civil rights bill. The move, taken Tuesday and kept secret at the White House’s request, would broaden authority for the attorney general to intervene in discrimination cases under the 14th Amendment, with limited exemptions for owner occupied private homes. The provision, part of seven sections in the bill, faces opposition from Republicans and Southern Democrats, while remaining central to the administration’s push.
