Why this rating
The resolution merely urges the establishment of a commission and has been referred to committee; no commission has been created, no funding or subpoena power has been established, and no binding action affecting Freedmen has occurred. As an introduced/referred concurrent resolution with no force of law, it has no material effect yet on freedmen specifically.
