Resurfaced Video Shows Kamala Harris Promising Race Grifter Al Sharpton She Will Sign Reparations Bill
Newly surfaced video has shown Kamala Harris promising to sign a reparations bill into law if she is elected president.
In what is reported to have been an appearance with notorious race grifter Al Sharpton during the 2020 presidential campaign, in which she polled so bad she pulled out before the primaries, Harris promised she would support the radical plan to take money from ordinary Americans and give it to black people.
“In the area of reparations of for descendants of Africans enslaved: If you’re elected president would you sign that bill [Commission to Study and Develop Reparation Proposals for African-Americans Act proposed by Representative Shelia Jackson Lee] if it came across your desk?” Sharpton asks Harris during the event.
“When I am elected president I will sign that bill,” she responds to the delight of the audience.
When running for president in 2020, Kamala Harris told Al Sharpton that she would sign a reparations bill once elected:

The footage went viral on the X platform on Sunday as conservatives seek to remind Americans of how truly radical this woman is.
It is unclear what kind of reparations bill Harris would support, although if her home city of San Francisco is anything to by, the proposals are absolutely insane.
Under the proposals put forward by the San Francisco Board of Supervisors, black people were to receive one-time lump sum payment of $5 million, complete debt forgiveness, a guaranteed income of $97,000 a year and the right to buy houses for as low as $1.
There are 41.6 million blacks in America, so $14 trillion in reparations would work out at $336538 per person.
Yet that is still peanuts compared to San Francisco, which plans to give everyone who "identifies" as black $5 million + $90k a year.

While a reparations bill is unlikely to pass Congress even if Democrats have a slim majority, such commitments are a reminder of Harris's far-left radicalism and willingness to say whatever is necessary in the pursuit of power, even if such pledges are completely unrealistic, immoral and unworkable.
