Some expectant Black and Pacific Islander mothers in San Francisco will get $1,000 a month during their pregnancy, officials announced, as the city looks to improve a longstanding racial gap in birthing outcomes.

Mayor London Breed on Monday introduced the Abundant Birth Project, which will give a basic income supplement to 150 Black and Pacific Islander women during pregnancy. They’ll get $1,000 a month through their pregnancy and for the first six months postpartum, “with a goal of eventually providing a supplement for up to two years post-pregnancy,” the mayor announced.

“Providing guaranteed income support to mothers during pregnancy is an innovative and equitable approach that will ease some of the financial stress that all too often keeps women from being able to put their health first,” Breed said in a statement. “The Abundant Birth Project is rooted in racial justice and recognizes that Black and Pacific Islander mothers suffer disparate health impacts, in part because of the persistent wealth and income gap.”

What if you’re trans-black or identify as a Pacific Islander?

Well, they're gonna be churning out babies one after another 'cause one grand a month ain't beanbag. And the fathers can pop in and out and live on that also.

Then all the multitudes of babies will be on welfare along with their mommies till they get old enough to be on welfare also.

And the beat goes on.....my head hurts.....

In PA a single mother of 5 would have to have a job making $62,500 to equal the benefits she gets.

Plus an extra grand a month?

Sounds like racial discrimination to me.

I’m a fat white guy. What language do I need to learn to get this benefit?

Welfare based on race rather than income sounds unconstitutional.

If they just send the checks with no strings attached I don’t think it will have any effect on the mortality rate. But I bet these women will be surrounded by taxpayer funded social workers to ensure they go to their doctor appointments and lay off the drugs and alcohol so the improved outcomes can be attributed to the free cash and the liberals can call in a successful program that needs to be expanded.
