San Francisco Mayor London Breed and three race-based guaranteed income programs are currently facing pushback from conservative groups with a lawsuit alleging racial discrimination. The lawsuit asserts that the city of San Francisco, California, awards millions of dollars each year exclusively to minorities and transgender women through three specific initiatives.
The lawsuit highlights three programs: the Black Economic Equity Project, the Guaranteed Income Project for trans people, and the Abundant Birth Project. The Black Economic Equity Project grants $500 per month solely to young Black Bay Area residents. The Guaranteed Income Project for trans people provides $1,200 per month exclusively to individuals who identify as Black, Indigenous, Latino, and transgender. Lastly, the Abundant Birth Project offers $1,000 per month to pregnant Black and Pacific Islander women.
