individuals who are descendants of formerly enslaved people

Mt great great great grandparents were enslaved in Ireland by the English way back when. Where’s my money honey

[butlerweave]

Where are they going to get the money ? LOL

[Red Badger]

That would include EVERY JEWISH PERSON IN THE WORLD...............

[9YearLurker]

Is California gonna reimburse the rest of us for all the leftists they’ve sent to Congress?

[ABStrauss]

Good news for those who never were slaves.

Bad news for those who never owned slaves.

A stupid state filled with utterly ignorant people.

[ABStrauss]

How about damages for all the crime and deaths caused by the permanent underclass represented in the black race?

[rey]

Better yet, for the leftists that flee CA because of the crap they voted for and continue to vote for in their refuge state.

[gibsonguy]

What clusterbleep this is going to be if this thing actually goes through. It will be an orgy of giime dat grifters and trial lawyers.

Democrat Tina McKinnor should change her culturally-appropriated names.

Tina is derived from Greek through Latin and Italian, while the "Mc" indicates Scottish origin.

As a so proud, so brave black California Democrat perhaps "Gimme Mo" would be apt. So many California Democrats should pay, and pay and pay.....

[silent majority rising]

So Jews will get reparations also? My Irish decendents were slaves also. Does Ireland owe me? I hope California doesn’t expect us to bail them out after this.

[HonorInPa]

Same here - except mine were Scottish and forced off of their land during the Removings.

[Dilbert San Diego]

If this bill passes, then what will Gavin Newsom do? Would he veto it, and anger the liberals? Would he veto it, to try to convince people he is conservative, as part of his expected run for president?

[SGCOS]

let's run reparations thru a "DOGE-ulator" and see the result...

whir..whir...click...ding ding ding....

Oh, the result indicates 100% waste and 150% fraud!!. Sorry, no reparations for California. No soup either.

[beethovenfan]

More Kalifornia dumbassery.

[Lazamataz]

My father was Jewish — the ORIGINAL slaves.

I want my 40000 acres and 2000 mules.

“”it requires, upon establishment of an agency to determine whether an applicant qualifies as a descendant of a formerly enslaved person,””

Ah Ha - a catch! MUST set up a new agency to make the determination of who qualifies! THAT ought to be fun. Let’s see if they can get that agency set up without stealing funds and we’ll find out if it will work or not! That should be good for 10-15 years in the making!

[VanShuyten]

I guess the thinking in California is that if you’re going to go bankrupt, it’s more fun to do so by a lot than just a little.

[Robert DeLong]

California can expect another mass exodus of the wealthy if & when it passes. The wealthy love to portray themselves as being onboard, until they receive the bill for their disproportionate share for being onboard.

Then the will move heaven & earth, along with themselves to avoid it.

[Thank You Rush]

I think you’re only entitled to the original 40 acres...no mules! Don’t be greedy!

[AppyPappy]

Newsome: We have no money
Assembly: Yeah we do
