From Democratic Underground:

Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist (R-Tenn.) refused repeated requests for a roll call vote that would have put senators on the record on a resolution apologizing for past failures to pass anti-lynching laws, officials involved in the negotiations said Tuesday.


In conclusion, if you're from Tennessee like me, both of your senators have impeded legislation on anti-lynching with Frist being an obstructionist before and Sen. Alexander not cosponsoring because he's holding out his one Black cosponsorship for the critical and crucial Black History Month legislation.
