Rep. Nancy Mace introduces resolution to ban race-based congressional caucuses
The Rules for Race-Based Congressional Groups resolution seeks to prohibit the House of Representatives from officially recognizing or providing resources to caucuses organized around race or ethnicity. Under the proposal, the Committee on House Administration would revoke the registration of any Congressional Caucus or Staff Organization that admits members based on race or advocates for the interests of a specific racial group. Mace argued that these organizations create divisions based on skin color rather than representing all constituents. The measure would impact long-standing organizations including the Congressional Black Caucus and the Congressional Hispanic Caucus. Mace stated that the resolution promotes equity and inclusion by ending what she described as race-based clubs in Congress. The resolution currently awaits further action in the House committee.
