Area lawmakers were on different sides of a vote on a resolution that passed in the U.S. House of Representatives to remove statues of confederates from the Capitol building and replace the statue of Roger Brooke Taney, a former chief justice of the United States, with a bust of Thurgood Marshall.

House resolution 3005 passed Tuesday in a 285-120 vote with Reps. Mike Kelly, R-16th, and Connor Lamb, D-17th, voting in favor and Glenn Thompson, R-15th, voting against.

Voting in favor were 218 Democratic and 67 Republican members. They were opposed by 120 Republicans, who voted against the resolution. Two Democrats and 24 Republicans did not cast a vote.

The resolution directs the Joint Committee on the Library to replace the bust of Taney, a former chief justice of the United States who was considered a Confederate sympathizer, in the Old Supreme Court Chamber of the United States Capitol with a bust of Marshall, the first Black Supreme Court justice.

The resolution also directs the committee to remove all statues of individuals who voluntarily served the Confederate States of America from display in the U.S. Capitol. Those statues include one of Jefferson Davis, a former U.S. senator from Mississippi and president of the Confederate States of America.
