Each state contributes two statues of historically important people to be displayed in Statuary Hall
Any statue removed and not owned by a state would be up to the Architect of the Capitol to address.
WASHINGTON – The House passed
a bill Tuesday that would remove Confederate statues from the U.S. Capitol as well as a bust of the former Supreme Court chief justice who wrote the 1857 Dred Scott decision that denied enslaved people the right to be citizens. This sacred space, this temple of democracy has been defiled for too long. We ought not to forget history. We must learn from history. But we ought not to honor that which defiles the principles for which we . stand, House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer, D-Md., said on the House floor before the vote. It s time to remove those symbols of slavery, segregation and sedition from these halls.
