That will never pass Congress and a "study" wouldn't lead to reparations.

Reparations is never, ever going to happen. Just the reality.

2 weeks.



I was one of those negros. I don't regret my vote either.

I outlined how Trump would further shut-off access to capital for Black people, and how he was targeting Medicaid. That doesn't mean I am a soft democrat or shill who won't even speak against democrats when they are bullshytting around.

----

People in here thinking I am a conservative/republican or white for wanting to call out dems when I've ever only voted for democrats. Some of these folks are very, very passive people. Someone says "no" to them and they shut up and put their heads down.



After a while the president must lead and not wait around. Let congress overturn the EO if they are truly against it.

Why only 2 weeks? And if you outed as a cac you permanently banned anyway?

I'm pretty sure Joe Biden can trace his ancestry back to the European founding fathers of America.

Biden would never support a Reparations platform.

That would be treason against his ancestors.

Its not happening... Biden is a proud white man.

The bill has serious flaws that SJL refuses to amend. It's good that it is still in committee because if it was put to a floor vote the Dems would be trying to sell it as Reparations.

Executive order doesn't require house and senate.

An executive order is a signed, written, and published directive from the President of the United States that manages operations of the federal government.
Executive orders are not legislation; they require no approval from Congress, and Congress cannot simply overturn them. Congress may pass legislation that might make it difficult, or even impossible, to carry out the order, such as removing funding. Only a sitting U.S. President may overturn an existing executive order by issuing another executive order to that effect.

Executive order - Wikipedia.


Anything related to money needs congressional approval and Reparations must include a wealth transfer. EO's are short term and can easily be overturned by future Presidents.
We need long term policies and protections.

"Dem" don't "control" Congress. To pass a bill you need 60 votes, Dems have 50 on paper but 2 of those 50 are actually just conservatives.
You know good and damn well nobody's going to acknowledge this, and you're about to get called a shill.
Yep, Manchin and Sinema. Dems control nothing, American politics as a whole is an illusion

:snoop: Came here for "Bu..bu..but Republicans"

Ya'll never concede that Democrats fail at anything. It's always some special reason. Same with Roe/Wade, the Democrats had the power to solify it, but, choose to dangle it like a carrot to a rabbit, to have something to run on.

He said he supported a study, so that is where we start.

Don't do the work for them, let them tell you they are going back on their word and won't do anything in support of a reparations platform.
