Providence launches $10M reparations program for black and Native American people - but poor white people may qualify because federal funds earmarked for budget can't exclude anyone based on race

[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] That would buy a lot of school lunches.

Mayor Jorge Elorza signed the budget into law in November to deliver the funds to some of the city's black and Native American communities

But because the federal funds can't be earmarked for specific races, white residents who earn less than $50,000 and live in the city can also apply

The program is funded by the American Rescue Plan Act, and under federal laws the money must be made available to people of all races

Providence is among a number of communities across the country now seeking to address reparations

In California, a nine-person reparation committee is urging that every descendant of slaves in the state be paid out a sum for 'housing discrimination'

Why should ANY CURRENT TAXPAYER foot the bill for issues that ended generations ago.

Why not instead a 2-3 year tax exemption on work/job related income capped at $65K? Taken from the State House operations & retirement budget. Make the elected officials pay for it, not the taxpayers.

Otherwise, the payoff is done using taxpayer $$$$ and would mean the people getting the $$$$ are also paying taxes to give what they get.
