I thought I would have heard of it here first. The Senate passed Resolution 26 on Thursday entitled "A concurrent resolution apologizing for the enslavement and racial segregation of African Americans". Both our Senators were co-sponsers and Senator Levin spoke on it. Sounds like a nice gesture.

I couldn't find any parellel resolution in the house yet, but it could appear soon. I did find that Representative Conyers sponsors a bill entitled "Commission to Study Reparation Proposals for African-Americans Act" every year and every year it dies in committee.
