The Lynching Apology

The Senate has passed a resolution apologizing for not passing a federal ban on lynching in the past. Fourteen republican Senators failed to co-sponsor this resolution. They were:

Lamar Alexander (R-TN)
Robert Bennett (R-UT)
Thad Cochran (R-MS)
John Cornyn (R-TX)
Michael Crapo (R-ID)
Michael Enzi (R-WY)
Chuck Grassley (R-IA)
Judd Gregg (R-NH)
Orrin Hatch (R-UT)
Trent Lott (R-MS)
Lisa Murkowski (R-AK)
Richard Shelby (R-AL)
John Sununu (R-NH)
Craig Thomas (R-WY)
George Voinovich (R-OH)

It should be known that you can co-sponsor a resolution after it passes.
