Biden Once Voted to Restore Citizenship to Jefferson Davis

Joe Biden once voted to restore the U.S. citizenship of Confederate President Jefferson Davis, the Washington Examiner reports.

“The former vice president was a member of the Senate Judiciary Committee that unanimously approved a bill in 1977. The measure was sent to the full Senate, where it was approved without dissent and later signed into law by President Jimmy Carter.”

“The initiatives, which generated relatively little controversy at the time, highlights the cultural and political shifts that have taken place during Biden’s nearly five-decade political career.”
