I'm 99.99% sure this was written with sarcasm dripping all over it, following up on Chaos' observation that the bill was introduced by a white lawmaker representing a majority minority district just months before re-election. At least that's how I read it.

Either sarcasm or he literally meant just putting the apology part behind us.

I rarely like back-to-back questions. I don't like interviews. Find someone else's brain to pick. 
So wassup with having a block party to celebrate the House apology!!!! Theme song is Mahalia's How I Got Over:
"Tell me how we got over 'LORD'
I've been falling and rising all these years
But you know my soul look back and wonder
How did I make it over
"

What's scary is that I knew you'd go the Dylan route. 
He is I and I am him. Slim with the tilted brim. What's yo name, fool?!?!?!

Of course.
I think these resolutions are pretty inane. I'm sure it's nice to recognize that bad things happened, and at this point, I don't think there are many folks left who think that Jim Crow, etc. was a good thing, but other than a bunch of mostly white men in suits feeling affirmed that they passed this resolution, nothing happened.
I felt the same way when the Pope apologized for the inquisition and all of the other bad things the Catholic church did in the past. I'm a Catholic if that makes a difference.
