It took a couple hundred attempts, but Congress finally got it right. A bill was passed to make lynching a federal crime. The Bill, called The Emmett Till Antilynching Act of 2022 was introduced by a Democrat AND Republican and came with no objections with a Senate vote.
The next step is that the bill goes to the desk of President Biden for final approval. The legislation is named after Chicagoan Emmett Till, who was brutally murdered at the age of 14 during a racist attack in Mississippi in 1955.
