   March 1 (UPI) -- House Democrats have failed to pass legislation to   
   ban discrimination against people with hairstyles that are commonly   
   associated with a particular race or national origin.   
      
   The lawmakers on Monday voted 235-188 in favor of the Creating a   
   Respectful and Open World for Natural Hair Act, but it did not   
   attract enough Republican votes to secure the super-majority needed   
   to approve the legislation upon the fast-track route the Democrats   
   had put it on.   
      
   The bill, introduced by Rep. Bonnie Coleman, D-N.J., would   
   specifically prohibit discrimination against those participating in   
   federally assisted programs, including housing, public   
   accommodations and employment, based on the texture of one's hair or   
   hairstyle.   
      
   Coleman in a statement following the vote accused Republicans of   
   succumbing to the climate of division and obstruction by not passing   
   the CROWN Act on the final day of Black History Month.   
      
   What a stupid bill.
