Guaranteed Income for Trans People: Tax Dollars ‘GIFT’ Directed to Black and Latino Transgender Individuals
B ack Edge News ^ | 10/24/2023 | A. Nicole

Judicial Watch reveals that San Francisco directs tax dollars towards black and Latino transgender individuals through its “Guaranteed Income for Trans People” (GIFT) program, offering unrestricted financial support.

The GIFT program was set up to provide financial support to those who identify as transgender and extremely low-income (<30% of Area Media Income, approximately less than $28,000 per year for a household of one person).

With 1,719 pages of records obtained through a California Public Records Act request, Judicial Watch uncovered the city’s distribution of funds in the GIFT program.

The documents revealed that the GIFT program has been using taxpayer funds to provide $1,200 monthly for up to 18 months to low-income transgender individuals in San Francisco.

Mayor London Breed first announced the program on November 16, 2022. It began distributing funds in January 2023.

The program explicitly sets quotas based on race and sexual identity, prioritizing black and Latinx transgender women with statements like, “The program enrollment will ensure the 55 participants is 66% BIPOC, at least 30% Black Trans Women, and at least 20% Latinx Trans Women.”

So, obviously, somebody does not believe Blacks and Latinos are not equal to Caucasians. They are not able to provide for themselves.

I think it’s reached rock bottom. I really can’t see how or why anyone would run a business there now.

San Francisco’s downhill slide continues.

There are several cities that need fencing off and kicked out of the Union....Minneapolis and New York too.

In San Fran Sicko, it pays to be a black or brown Tranny! (Are Filipino trannys brown enough?) White trannys need not apply.

Do the people of CA get some kind of reward for thinking up bad policy ideas or are they just stupid?

Do government subsidies still create demand? Is that the plan?

Well, well, well. Since a person can self ID as Black or Hispanic and also self ID as a Tranny, there are may permutations with which could came the funds...... I’ve come up the at least six...... WOW six payments every month, I could almost afford to live in SF!

Easiest scam potential since Covid checks.
Someone may pretend to be “Trans for a day”, just to get that money. By tomorrow, they will “suddenly” have transitioned back to the binary hetro they were born to be.
No rule saying they would have to give the money back!

These fools need to get a job, work hard to keep it and try to advance in their career. Otherwise, they can go to their parents or friends. It is never too late to lift yourself with your boot laces. Nobody wants to help someone who cannot be helpful, asking for suggestions to make things easier for him/her. Those whom gets things done, rise to the top.

This is illegal, wrong and unconstitutional. Laws that “allow “ it are invalid and non-binding.
