California reparations plans are moving forward, with separate proposals under consideration by the state Legislature and the City of San Francisco, although critics including a former San Francisco supervisor are expressing concern that the recommendations exceed budgetary limitations.
Established in May 2021 with the approval of Assembly Bill 3121, the California Reparations Task Force submitted its final recommendations to the Legislature on June 29, in the form of a 1,100-page report issuing guidance for apologies and calculations for determining cash payments.
