There are no Republicans among the present 41 members of the Congressional Black Caucus...

When JC Watts was in Congress, they wouldn't allow him in.

I seem to recall that, and they probably wouldn’t still let any conservative African American, or any conservative from another race in

That’s not true; Congressman Watts refused to join, saying that if there wasn’t a Congressional White Caucus there shouldn’t be a Congressional Black Caucus.

Hispanic Republicans in Congress used to belong to the Congressional Hispanic Caucus, but they all quit a few years ago because of the group’s liberal agenda and formed the Congressional Hispanic Conference for Republicans.

depends on which side is doing the claiming.
Watts claims he refused to join and called them (not by name)”race-hustling poverty pimps.”
