HR 4321 United States House · 118th Congress

No Bailouts for Reparations Act

HR 4321 prohibits the U.S. government from providing any federal loans, grants, or financial assistance to state or local governments that enact reparations programs based on slavery, race, ethnicity, national origin, or related historical practices. This bill directly affects state and local governments that pass such reparations laws by blocking access to federal funds for those specific programs. The key provision bans all forms of federal financial aid - including from the Federal Reserve and independent agencies - to the jurisdiction enacting the reparations program, without applying to other government functions. The bill focuses solely on restricting federal funding for these programs, not on creating or funding reparations themselves.
