California Reparations Task Force asks the state to ELIMINATE child support debt for black residents

California actually has a Reparations Task Force and they are recommending the state eliminate child support debt for black residents.
Here’s more via New York Post:
The California Reparations Task Force is asking the Democrat-controlled state legislature to eliminate interest on past-due child support, as well as any back child support debt for black residents of the state.
In its final report released last week, the group claimed “discriminatory” laws “have torn African American families apart,” and that one effect of that is the “harms” caused by “the disproportionate amount of African Americans who are burdened with child support debt.”
The nearly 1,100-page document stated that black Californians represent a larger percentage of those who owe child support debt than their proportion of the state’s population.
It also claimed the 10% interest the state charges on back child support “hinders” their ability to finance further education, attend job training, find employment and maintain housing because of the legal consequences of not paying such debt.
“The Task Force recommends that the Legislature enact legislation to terminate all interest accrued on back child support, requiring only the payment of the principal owed. At a minimum, the proposal recommends that the Legislature eliminate the prospective accrual of interest on child support debt for low-income parents,” the report said.
“The Task Force further recommends that the Legislature amend Family Code section 17560, the ‘offers in compromise’ provision, to allow for offers in compromise and forgiveness of child support debt based solely on a parent’s financial (sic) circumstances and ability to pay,” it added.
First San Francisco wants to make $5 million in ‘reparation payments’ to black residents and now the state may vote to eliminate child support debt from black residents, all in the name of ‘reparations’. Seriously, why should California tax payers have to foot the bill for this garbage? Or a better question is when will they figure out that radical leftists are ruining the state??
