The House voted to remove the bust of former Supreme Court Chief Justice Roger B. Taney and several other statues associated with the Confederacy or racism.
Democrats have been determined to rid the building of statues memorializing long-dead dignitaries who held racist viewpoints, a goal realized in Tuesday s vote of 285-120. Sixty-seven Republicans voted with all Democrats present, but many GOP members said the removal process should be left to the states, which are each allowed to place two statues in the Capitol.
While the House has voted in favor of removing the statues in the past, the effort stalled under the GOP-led Senate, which is now in Democratic hands. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, a New York Democrat, has not indicated when or if he’ll bring up the bill, but House Democrats are confident.
