(The Center Square) - A new Sacramento unrestricted cash welfare pilot program that will distribute $725 per month to selected low-income parents or guardians of black or indigenous children allows individuals to apply regardless of immigration status.
The program does not provide an option for parents of white, Asian, or Hispanic children, leading critics to wonder why the county adopted racial restrictions when a needs-based program would be more fair and less subject to legal scrutiny....
The Sacramento Family First Economic Support Pilot will provide $725 per month for 12 months to 200 randomly selected parents or legal guardians of black or indigenous children up to five years old living in select Sacramento zip codes with an income under 200% of the federal poverty level.... the maximum annual income for a single parent with one child would be $40,880...
“Immigration status does not impact eligibility,” wrote the FFESP on its FAQ page. “Families of any immigration status are welcome to apply.”

Huh. I mean… this SOUNDS racist and prejudicial to me, but I’m white so what do I know?
