"Arizona Representative Eli Crane was quickly condemned on the House floor Thursday after using the phrase "colored people" while defending his amendment to the national defense bill.
Crane had proposed a measure to the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) that would prohibit the consideration of "race, gender, religion, or political affiliations, or any other ideological concepts as the sole basis for recruitment, training education, promotion, or retention decisions." The Republican, who is also a member of the House Freedom Caucus, was one of several conservatives who put forth amendments to the crucial Pentagon spending bill, which allocates funding for the Defense Department for the next fiscal year."
