Demand an apology from the 1 in 4 GOP Senators who refuse to cosponsor lynching apology

UPDATE: I've updated the t-shirt to reflect the 13 GOP hold-outs who we are now calling, on the shirt, "The Lynch Mob."

They've now had a week, there's no way any of these guys don't know about this resolution.

They've had calls, they've had local press inquiries, and they still don't give a damn that the US Senate NEVER passed legislation making lynching a federal crime, nor that it was southern states, like many of the Senators who are now refusing to cosponsor, who filibustered the anti-lynching bill. And it was a southern Senator, Bill Frist of TN, who refused to bring this legislation up for a real recorded vote, and insisted on it being brought up in the late hours of the evening in the hopes that no one would pay attention.

It's high time these 13 Republican Senators, the Lynch Mob as they're now being called, apologize to the Senate, to their party, and their country for taking such a racist stance. They represent nearly 25% of all GOP Senators - nearly one in four, folks - and they refuse to cosponsor a simply resolution making a statement against lynching.

Call them all week and demand they apologize.
