The house chose Wednesday night to make a federal holiday more Junawi, a rare bipartisan moment that runs through the congress at the speed of Breakneck to commemorate the end of slavery in the United States.
Parliamentarians at home are highly adopted bipartisan resolution in 415-14 voting which joins most of the state in recognizing Junies as a national holiday. But the steps gathered the enthusiasm of bipartisan which was slightly less than done in the Senate, which agreed to unanimously the day before, with 14 republik houses opposed the bill.

President Joe Biden, who traveled back from Geneva after the summit of the Russian President Vladimir Putin, is expected to sign the bill into the law, although the sponsor of the resolution does not provide a previous indication on Wednesday when it will occur.
Junetesti, who was observed on June 19 and fell on Saturday this year, has been celebrated at A.S. Over the years but received significant national attention last year after the death of George Floyd and national protests against the brutality of the police and systemic racism. The day marked when the Union General went to Texas in 1865 to announce the end of the civil war and slavery, more than two years after the proclamation of emancipation.
The resolution was glidepath through the congress this week. After the Senate chose Tuesday with a round approval to approve laws that construct Junetesh National Independence Day, the DPR Regulation Committee quickly met on Wednesday afternoon so that the lower space could vote for the day.
“Junetestient is as important as African-Americans because they will become Americans because we are also Americans, and that means freedom,” rep. Sheila Jackson Lee from Texas, said a democratic sponsor, said a democratic sponsor. “This is a journey of pain, brutality, separation, and racist hands held in slavery.”
Republicans who signed this step echoed the need to recognize Junies as a holiday. Senator John Cornyn from Texas, a GOP co-sponsor, noted that his home country had celebrated over the past four decades and that federal recognition came at the time of increasing “level of distrust, for example, between law enforcement and the community they provided.”
But even when the two rooms quickly came together on Junetesti, a member of a democratic parliament acknowledged Wednesday there was a sustainable job to overcome racism against black Americans outside building a new vacation. And problems filled with politics such as the curriculum of the theory of critical race in schools and reform against the police and voting continues to divide the congresses and most countries.
Both parties are currently locked in negotiations to remodel the police in America, talks who saw a new momentum after the belief of the murder of the former Minneapolis police officer Chauvin, who knelt in Floyd’s neck for more than nine minutes during his arrest. But they are still fixated on provisions such as qualified immunity, an officer of the legal doctrine of demanded for official actions unless they violate “clearly establishing laws or constitutional rights.”
But the voting rights and theory of critical races – the framework that challenges the way the race is traditionally discussed in the classroom and teaches that racism permeated in laws and US institutions – remains a problem that has been cut in the state throughout the country.
