REPORT: Gavin Newsom Signs Bill to Build Reparations Bureaucracy

CALIFORNIA WAS NEVER EVEN A SLAVE STATE, BUT NEWSOM IS STILL PUSHING ‘REPARATIONS’

From Breitbart: Gov. Gavin Newsom (D-CA) has approved legislation establishing a new state agency tasked with administering programs for descendants of slaves, marking the latest step in his years-long effort to advance reparations policies despite ongoing political and fiscal challenges.

The move follows years of stalled negotiations, activist pressure, and budget shortfalls, as Newsom continues working to push the issue forward in the nation’s most populous state.

The new law, Senate Bill 518, creates the Bureau for Descendants of American Slavery within the California Civil Rights Department. The bureau will be led by a governor-appointed deputy director and organized into three main divisions: Genealogy, Education and Outreach, and Legal Affairs. The agency will be responsible for verifying individual lineage, managing public education efforts about historical discrimination, and ensuring legal compliance as reparations-related initiatives expand.

Implementation of the bureau depends on future legislative appropriations, and the bill authorizes the agency to receive funding from federal, state, and private sources. The law also establishes privacy requirements for handling genetic and personal information and explicitly limits public access to that data.


In 2020, amid the George Floyd riots, Newsom had signed a bill creating a task force to study and recommend reparations proposals for Black Californians. The task force later suggested that every eligible resident should receive over $1 million in payments.

In 2022 Newsom established a “Racial Equity Commission” which is still developing a statewide “Racial Equity Framework.”
