These people are just a bunch of knuckleheads, aren't they?
Call it woke, call it reparations, call it "reverse discrimination."
I don't care what you call it, this here is anti-white racism.
Here's the relevant part of the bill:
As part of the covenant homeownership program, the department shall contract with the commission to design, develop, implement and evaluate one or more special purpose credit programs to reduce racial disparities in ownership in the state by providing down payment and closing cost assistance… The contract must authorize the commission to use up to one percent of the contract to provide targeted education, homeownership counseling, and outreach about special purpose credit programs created under this section to black, indigenous, and people of color and other historically marginalized communities in Washington state.
The "other historically marginalized communities" clause in this law is just there so that you know that anyone EXCEPT white men are privileged by the law.
Here's one of the geniuses behind this "restorative justice" plan that, again, is just hatred of whites.
To be clear, this is an extension of a law passed in 2023. That law gave preference to "BIPOC" applicants for first time homebuyer loans. Now those same loans which they are given special preference for are now "forgivable" up to $120k.
House Bill 1696 amended the bill by expanding eligibility by raising the area median income threshold (AMI) for eligibility to 120%. If a borrower's income is 80% or less of the AMI, their loans can be completely forgiven after five years. Anyone who is a descendant of a resident of the state before 1968 and was adversely affected before the Fair Housing Act of 1968 is eligible.
That's $120,000 of free money for not being white. They call it reparations and restorative justice for a reason!
Of course, this is very illegal and unconstitutional (although that's never stopped the Dems before).
I am just glad that we've got their true colors on record now.
