How exactly would this law have worked?
Please also explain the legal justification for the law being constitutional by citing specific precedent allowing such a law.
White people made extraordinary wealth and wage gains under Barack Obama...But Black folk lost wealth under Obama

Shut the fukk up.
So the expectation here is that Obama would have taken unilateral action to address housing discrimination? How exactly would that work? Would it be constitutional? Is there a precedent for it?
This is NY state, not the federal government. This is directed at undocumented workers, not any one ethnicity or race. These are the same “checks” that New Yorkers received earlier in the pandemic.Where tf you been? This is old.
New York will offer payments of up to $15,600 to undocumented immigrants affected by the pandemic, in a sweeping move which could benefit nearly 300,000 people in the state.
...
Other undocumented immigrants who are unable to meet the same level of verification will be eligible for $3,200 – the amount of federal assistance payments many Americans have already received
New York to give up to $15,600 to undocumented migrants hit by Covid
Sweeping move could benefit nearly 300,000 people, with those who lost work during pandemic eligible for relief paymentwww.theguardian.com
c00n babble. Other ppl get checks: Ukrainians, Syrians, the whole damn Hasidim in NYC and NYS, I could go on...
How does this support your argument?
No, the expectation was that when he had a majority in the Senate and House, that he could have put up a call to Congress to address it while they had the power to do it. He did no such thing. Remember, when he first came in the Democrats had a majority in both sides of congress. Budget bills also only require a 51% in the Senate as per the Byrd rule (Reconciliation) since 1990. He and the Democrats had the power to do something, they chose not to.
In 2009 when Obama entered office there were 257 Democrats and 178 Republicans in the House. In the Senate, there were 49 Democrats & 49 Republicans with 2 Independents who caucused with the Democrats. So with the Vice President being the Tie Breaker, since Independents leaned to the Democratic side, he had a good chance of accomplishing something if he had actually had put in the effort to do so.

Interesting thread topic. Yes Obama really didn't do anything for blacks although he never said he would cater to black issues. IMO the biggest problem is how we operate. Whites already had businesses and wealth (of some sort) to take advantage of policies. They didn't go from dirt poor to ballin under Obama. Also, we are not starting businesses to build up communities and to take advantage of tax incentives at the rate of other demographics.

By 1992, the U.S. government eventually disbursed more than $1.6 billion (equivalent to $3.67 billion in 2021) in reparations to 82,219 Japanese Americans who had been incarcerated
Internment of Japanese Americans - Wikipedia
In March 1951, a new request was made by Israel's foreign minister Moshe Sharett which claimed global recompense to Israel of $1.5 billion based on the financial cost absorbed by Israel for the rehabilitation of 500,000 Jewish survivors. West German Chancellor Konrad Adenauer accepted these terms and declared he was ready to negotiate other reparations. A Conference on Jewish Material Claims against Germany was opened in New York City by Nahum Goldmann in order to help with individual claims. After negotiations, the claim was reduced to a sum of $845 million direct and indirect compensations to be installed in a period of 14 years. In 1988, West Germany allocated another $125 million for reparations.[30]
In 1999, many German industries such as Deutsche Bank, Siemens or BMW faced lawsuits for their role in the forced labour during World War II. In order to dismiss these lawsuits, Germany agreed to raise $5 billion of which Jewish forced laborers still alive could apply to receive a lump sum payment of between $2,500 and $7,500.[30] In 2012, Germany agreed to pay a new reparation of €772 million as a result of negotiations with Israel.[31]
In 2014, the SNCF, the French state-owned railway company, was compelled to allocate $60 million to American Jewish Holocaust survivors for its role in the transport of deportees to Germany. It corresponds to approximately $100,000 per survivor.[32] Although the SNCF was forced by German authorities to cooperate in providing transport for French Jews to the border and did not make any profit from this transport, according to Serge Klarsfeld, president of the organization Sons and Daughters of Jewish Deportees from France.[33]
...These reparations also led to a massive scam where $57 million were fraudulently given to thousands of people who were not eligible for the funds.[35]

1. You obviously didn't read the (very short) quote bc they stated clearly that Americans received $3,200, not $15,600.
2. Bc this government apparently writes checks very well, going so far as to write checks for mf'ers whose presence on this very soil is illegal.

The dip is real but it wasn’t really Obamas fault. Another democrat, Bill Clinton, repealed glass-steagall a decade prior and it created the conditions that caused the 2008 collapse
Obama didn’t do anything to remedy black people being targeted and affected because the focus was on reelection
I wonder if it would have been better if Obama never got elected, like if Hillary would have won the nomination like most ppl expected. Black people might have been more politically engaged those 8 yrs instead of being pacified by symbolism , we probably never get a Trump presidency, and Cornell West Jesse Jackson and other black legends wouldn’t have been cancelled for being real about Obama

Obama should have added additional protections for Black homeowners when he signed off on bailing out the banks. It was a huge mistake on his end that he didn't. A lot of Black people became underwater on their houses.
