Congress coming back into session after the long campaign break means quick legislative action — against the Washington Redskins.
D.C. Del. Eleanor Holmes Norton (D) introduced on Wednesday a bill to amend section 501 of the Internal Revenue Code to “prohibit tax-exempt status for professional sports leagues that promote or allow a member club or franchise connected to that league to benefit from the Washington football team name, a derogatory term that has officially been found offensive.”
It’s companion legislation to a bill filed in the upper chamber by Sen. Maria Cantwell (D-Wash.).
The lawmakers are encouraged by Federal Communication Commission consideration of a petition to ban the use of “Redskins” on the air.
