Democrat Mayor Wants To Give Marijuana Tax Revenue As Reparations To Close Race Wealth Gap

A Democratic mayor in New York has proposed the use of marijuana tax revenue for a reparations program intended to close the so-called racial wealth gap.

Rochester Mayor Lovely Warren wrote a letter to the Ibero American Action League on Thursday announcing her plans to explore the reparations initiative through universal basic income (UBI) and a homeownership program in the city.
