Democrats Block Reparation Cali Bill

no its dead dead, I posted a non fox news article about a week ago. IF the Black Caucus let it out of committee it WAS GOING TO PASS. It had the votes already but ego.

And this is why black folks were upset. They shot the shit down with 2 pistols. No Trump, No Republican, in fact, a Republican as I stated, brought the bill up on the floor, all was needed was a second motion so that the bill can be presented.

The Democratic party sat on they ass.

Republican dude did a chess move to show folks how this party don't give a shit about black folks. Dude said, I'll bring the bill up on the floor, let's see if they jump on it.


And I thnk it's like only 22 Republicans and like 66 or so Democratic members in Cali. The shit should have easily passed and helped them black folks out.
 
I def understand the correlation yiu are making in terms of them being the same party

But just as many others have pointed out

State and Federal Politics are two different leagues and games

look at State politics as the NCAA and Fed as the Pros

Also,

Stuff like this should really drill into people heads that participation in local and state elections are VASTLY more important than the national ones…as the results of policies, bills, laws, etc enacted by those elected at local and state level have IMMEDIATE impact on your day to day.

We usually dont feel effects of national political agendas for years

Dont just get that “I voted” sticker in Nov every 4 years

The fact that this is a Fox News article makes me skeptical. The bill will be addressed again it’s not going away. The can will continue to be kicked down the road. As far as trying to connect this to Kamala Harris I think that’s kinda silly. Most black Californians are gonna vote for her regardless. Fox News once again trying to stoke the flames of division among the opps.

I don't think it's silly at all. Most Black Californians wanted that bill to be passed and that party shot it down.

I don't think this has anything to do with Fox News, in fact, you can use another source and read about it. You don't have to use Fox News to read what happened in 'reality'.

@Anybody who may have an idea

Let's talk about it.

I was in Sacramento last weekend with the Family applying pressure to the Congressional Black cowards to do the right thing but their minds were already made up for them



They bullshitted around with the bill and then bascially vetoed their own bill before it can even make it to the floor. They could have passed the bill and let it get into the hands of Newsom but OBVIOUSLY he warned them and threatened their house nigga gigs if the bill made it to his desk. He didn't want to forced to be the bad guy by vetoing it because that would interfere with his 2028 presidential aspirations. He probably paid them some extra butter biscuits to make sure the bill never saw the light of day



As it turns out the Republican tried to introduce the bill several times as a strategic chess move knowing the pussy whipped Democrats wouldn't second the motion



So, the record will show the Democrats dangled a reparations bill in our face only to strike it down and the Republican is the one who brought it forward to get it passed

Even the black Democrats are anti black. In this case they were being anti-black, so the white Democrats wouldn't have to


To be a Democrat is to be anti black 💡


but none of this will matter to the loyal cotton pickers of the black community, especially the ones reading this post

The state has bills that need to pass for the local citizen and non-citizen members in that state, and if things on the state level can't be passed that will correct the issues for black folks, this hurts the party. No matter what league is where

If you can't get things done for you at home, for you, specifically for you, nobody else, then that takes away for you thinking things will be done for you on the federal level specifically for you, black folks I'm speaking about and nobody else.

I'm not concerned about the 'functions' between state and federal.


A bill was introduced, ready to go for only black folks, the democratic party shot it down and to me, that's a bad look on the entire party.

This is interesting. It's cool that CA created that task force for Reparations. They wrote an 1100 pg. paper cataloging the damage done to black people by the state. I've always felt that they should have started with an attempt to do something like that on a Federal level. It would be hard to argue against the need for reparations when you got something that comprehensive making the case.

The reasons for shooting the bill down are terrible. I'm betting those caucus members were paid off.
 
Again,

Black folks do it the right way, put something together for only "them" present it to the legislature, only for the democratic party that they've supported for 60 something years to shoot the shit down and these same folks who shot the bill down, want you to vote for Kamala?

That's crazy.

I aint saying who you should support but I am saying to use common sense. I know I wouldn't be supporting someone who just cut off my lights and their team

We get your logic, but you just refuse to see that State and Federal politics are not the same.

Black caucus members shot the bill down. You're black too. So is it your fault that the bill got shot down just because you're "on the same team" as them?

The downfall of California has been crazy to see. I don't care what anyone says. It was the greatest place on Earth at one point.

I see that a bill for reparations that black folks put together just last week got shot down by the Democratic Party and a Democratic Governor.4

I also see that the Democratic has like a 3 to 1 seat members and run the hill in that state.

I also see that a Republican motioned (white man) for the bill to be passed, and not a Democratic member 2nd that motion.

None of that matters on a Federal level. If those black politicians shot the bill down for their own career reasons, you got to punish them. Punishing Kamala doesn't make sense. She had nothing to do with the bill.

After listening to that Lamont Hill vid, there are suggestions that the DNC might have had something to do with this because they didn't want to upset Reps and hurt Kamala's chances. If that's true, then I agree with you 100%. That would be crazy and a good reason for black people everywhere to say "Fuck the Dems" this election cycle.

You don't think punishing Kamala doesn't make sense, Kool. I think and most black folks in Cali because of this situation think she needs to be punished.

Nobody said she had anything to do with the bill, folks are saying she's a democrat, and the democratic party who she represents, who she is connected to has plenty to do with these bills failing. That's pretty much their reasoning whether you think it's silly or not. Many don't think it's silly.
 
Can't spin this one baby.

A smooth slap in black folks face who presented something specifically for them, did it the correct way, only to be shitted on by the Democratic party who they've supported for 60 plus years.

Some say this was the last straw for them. Idk. But this wasn't the move here for that party, A Democratic state.

Asians get them a hate bill created when they march up to the white house, they quickly got that bill passed.

Harm an Asian and watch what happened. That bill's language states this bill is to protect Asians and Pacific islanders. Covid Bill but read the language in that bill and you'll see why Black folks, Tyrese called it an Anti-Asian Hate Bill and not Anti Black Hate Bill

Like I pointed out before, that would be the same as black people outside of California punishing you for hurting the overall reparations cause just because you're a Black Californian and the people who killed the bill were also Black Californians.

I don't understand this correlation? Can you explain a bit more.

I've pointed out several times that Dems for each state and the Dems in the Fed government are not the same, not beholden to each other, and don't depend on each other as much as you might think. You even admit that Kamala has nothing to do with the bill not passing. Your whole reason for wanting to punish her is that she has the same label (i.e. Democrat) that the people that killed the bill have.

The correlation is that you also share a label (i.e. Black Californian) with the people that killed the bill. I hope it's obvious that it would be stupid for a pro-reparations black person from here in MD to blame you on some "You Black Californians just fucked up the whole movement" type shit. If you can understand that, then you should be able to understand why it's stupid to want to punish Kamala for something that she had no part in.

Now, like I said, if Kamala or the DNC did actually put pressure on or buy off those state politicians because they didn't want to deal with the optics of the reparations bill moving forward, then I'm with you 100%.
