The Senate is working to wrap up an anti-Asian hate crimes bill this week as senators near a deal on changes to the legislation.

The bill, introduced by Sen. Mazie Hirono (D-Hawaii), will likely come up for a vote as early as Wednesday, a Senate Democratic aide confirmed to The Hill.

"I'm optimistic we can finish our work on the anti-Asian hate crimes bill later this week in the same manner we started it, with an overwhelming bipartisan vote. And let me say it's needed," Senate Majority Leader Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.) said from the Senate floor on Monday.

“Hirono has got to be the stupidest member of the senate. She is right up there with gillibrand.”

Don’t forget Patty Murray.

That will apply only to White People that are not Marxist Democrats.

Yup - following the Jussie Smollet/Harris ploy.

Make up a fake story in the media - sow hysteria - push forth communist legislation to enforce thought control.

This law will make it a hate crime to call COVID-19 the “Wuhan Virus”. Literally - it’s written into the law.

My god this government is simply retarded. Laws layered upon layers of laws become worthless. I also think these laws are not meant to be for any good beyond the name of it but are in reality a way to garner more power and syphon money that the bill will cost and bring in and funnel it back to the politicians and special interest groups.

This, after the House refused to pass an anti-antisemitic resolution a few years ago?

Why would the House want to pass a hate crime?

when white people only turn to white people for business and hiring, because everyone else hates us, will that still make us racist?

self fulfilling prophecy or unintended consequences?

Why are they giving hate such a bad name when they use so much of it.
