REPRESENTATIVE SHEILA JACKSON LEE'S BILLS
The goal of bill H.R. 40 is to establish a commission to study the long-term impact of American slavery and consider making reparations to the descendants of slaves.
The National African American Reparations Commission hailed the bill as “a major victory for proponents of reparations who have labored for decades to build mainstream support for redressing the lingering effects of enslavement on African Americans.”
