January 1, Transgender Residents To Receive $1200 Monthly “Guaranteed Income”

Published

San Francisco, California, is launching a program to provide a monthly payment exclusively to transgender residents.

The city started accepting applications for the Guaranteed Income for Trans People (GIFT) program last Wednesday, San Francisco Mayor London Breed said. Under the new initiative, 55 transgender residents of San Francisco County will receive $1,200 a month in “guaranteed income” for 18 months.

“Our Guaranteed Income Programs allow us to help our residents when they need it most as part of our city’s economic recovery and our commitment to creating a more just city for all,” Breed told KRON 4 News. “We know that our trans communities experience much higher rates of poverty and discrimination, so this program will target support to lift individuals in this community up.”

According to the program’s website: “Guaranteed Income for Transgender People (G.I.F.T.) will provide economically marginalized transgender people with unrestricted, monthly guaranteed income as a way to combat poverty our most impacted community members face.” 

“The Transgender District and Lyon-Martin Community Health Services, in partnership with municipal city departments in the City and County of San Francisco, will provide 55 Transgender residents of San Francisco County with $1,200 a month in guaranteed income for a year and a half. The program will prioritize enrollment of Transgender, Non-Binary, Gender Non-Conforming, and Intersex (TGI) people who are also Black, Indigenous, or People of Color (BIPOC), experiencing homelessness, living with disabilities and chronic illnesses, youth and elders, monolingual Spanish-speakers, and those who are legally vulnerable such as TGI people who are undocumented, engaging in survival sex trades, ​or are formerly incarcerated,” the website reads.

The city is accepting applications until Dec. 15.

According to KRON 4 News, the city will launch another two guaranteed income programs in 2023.

    It is a prejudiced policy. I am glad I don’t live there. I wonder how many people will move away? Misdirected taxes!

    It’s another step towards reparations. In addition to giving money to black people as if it is owed to them, now they will include all people of color. This is blatantly anti-white, prejudicial and is likely anti-Constitutional but when has anybody in the city of San Francisco or the state of California for that matter cared what is against the Constitution? This is obvious discrimination but it discriminates against whites, so it’s OK.

    Such insanity. Homeless drug addicts relieving themselves in the streets while the keebler elf continues to puke the Covid lie. Antifa funded by Georgie boy continues to destroy real estate and stomp on freedom of speech rights (excluding themselves). Everything President Trump put in place as our Founding Fathers intended has been flushed by the socialist administration and our Veterans who signed on for another political war are starving and committing suicide. People who where given student loans and now live in million dollar homes while they pretend to be lawyers and Doctors are forgiven from paying back their loans but the real working person has to now be concerned that the IRS will show up to audit your 30K a year income. Gas, food, and just about all else continue to increase in price while the only thing of importance is to imprison Donald Trump for the Democrat orchestrated Jan 6th scam at the Capitol. The Republican party which was infiltrated by the Democrat commies long long ago want us all to think come January of 2023 they will absolve us of all this insanity and restore this republic that was secured by a revolutionary war. Time is way past due to wake up and wise up.
