Harding supported Congressman Leonidas Dyer's federal anti-lynching bill, known as the Dyer Bill, which passed the House of Representatives on January 26, 1922.

Although he actually disagreed with the use of the death penalty in principle, in October 1922 he enacted a Public Safety Bill, which allowed for the execution of anyone who was captured bearing arms against the state or aiding armed attacks on state forces.

The Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill as it appeared in 1922 stated: " To assure to persons within the jurisdiction of every State the equal protection of the laws, and to punish the crime of lynching .... Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, That the phrase ' mob or riotous assemblage ,' when used in this act, shall mean an assemblage composed of three or more persons acting in concert for the purpose of depriving any person of his life without authority of law as a punishment for or to prevent the commission of some actual or supposed public offense.

The scandal also was a key factor in posthumously further destroying the public reputation of the Harding administration, which was already unpopular due to its poor handling of the Great Railroad Strike of 1922 and the President's veto of the Bonus Bill in 1922.

For example, the first Governor-General of the Irish Free State, Tim Healy, was instructed by the British Dominions Office in 1922 to withhold the Royal Assent on any Bill passed by the two houses of the Oireachtas ( the Irish parliament ) that attempted to change or abolish the Oath of Allegiance.

However no such Bill was introduced during Healy's period in office ( 1922 – 28 ).
