Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee, D-Texas, has reintroduced legislation that would fund a commission for studying and developing proposals for giving reparations to African Americans.
"The commission shall examine slavery and discrimination in the colonies and the United States from 1619 to the present and recommend appropriate remedies," the legislation reads. It would specifically examine the role of governments in supporting slavery, discrimination that freed slaves encountered, and the "lingering effects of slavery on living African-Americans and society."
The bill was originally introduced in January of 2019 but made a comeback earlier this week as the 117th Congress took office. Reparations have become an especially controversial topic in the past year and encountered pushback from Congressional Republicans.
