@mekkaokereke @PJ_Evans The bill you linked failed and you know that a sponsor of a bill is not the same as the person who invented/authored it.

The first bill introduced under this name had Biden listed as the first sponsor. (Strom Thurmond was second named)

What actually passed was S1762 which was sponsored by Strom Thurmond in the Senate and by Hamilton Fish IV in the House. The version that was enacted into law used the language by Fish (HR 5963).

Claiming Biden "invented" this is a gross exaggeration about an extremely bipartisan piece of legislation. You are not being a trustworthy narrator and you should be ashamed.
