Vice President Kamala Harris announced a new plan designed to benefit black men, a crucial voting group in the upcoming election.
(PLGNN) - United States Vice President Kamala Harris announced Monday her new plan to benefit Black men, which is a very important voter bloc in the upcoming election.
The Opportunity Agenda consists of five different opportunities, the first of which being, "Provide 1 million loans that are fully forgivable up to $20k for Black entrepreneurs and others to start a business."
The second part of the agenda is to "Support education training, and mentorship programs that lead to good-paying jobs for Black men, including pathways to become teachers".
Third is to "Protect cryptocurrency investments so Black men who make them know their money is safe."
Fourth, "Launch a national health initiative focused on the illnesses that disproportionately impact Black men."
The final part of the agenda states, "Legalize recreational marijuana and create opportunities for Black Americans to succeed in this new industry."
After Harris released this policy plan, many social media users were upset by this, accusing Harris of racial discrimination.
The new policies on crypto had caused a massive rise in Bitcoin, with the currency nearing an all-time high. Now, both presidential candidates have pledged their support for the protection of crypto currency as an asset.
The final part of the agenda, which involves the legalization of recreational marijuana is very different to Kamala Harris's stance on marijuana during her time as the San Francisco district attorney, where she oversaw over 1900 convictions for pot offenses.
The election will take place on November 5.
