Trent Lott is notable for his absence. Being against Federal Lynching Legislation was a major aspect of Strom Thurmond's candidacy in 1948 by the way.

Now this list may have problems, as Mary Landrieu isn't listed and she and George Allen (R-Va) were the main Senators pushing for this resolution, but still I'm betting Lott is still missing, as well as many other Mason-Dixie line Senators, and and missing are "turtle-lover" John Cornyn and Kay Bailey Hairdo of Texas.
