                         CONCURRENT RESOLUTION


 
   Declaring the sense of Congress with respect to the use of racial 
     quotas and statistics in connection with death penalty cases.

    Resolved by the House of Representatives (the Senate concurring), 
That it is the sense of Congress that racial quotas and statistics 
should not be used to determine whether or not to impose the penalty of 
death in criminal cases where such penalty is available, but each such 
determination should be made on the merits of the individual case at 
hand.
