Expressing support for the House of Representatives to work alongside the Congressional Black Caucus to build the Black Wealth Agenda and outline the legislative priorities to achieve the Black Wealth Agenda.
HRES 1096 is a non-binding resolution expressing support for the House of Representatives to collaborate with the Congressional Black Caucus in developing the "Black Wealth Agenda." It identifies key areas requiring policy action, including closing the racial wealth gap through improvements in homeownership access, education equity, fair employment practices, affordable housing, and tax reform. The resolution outlines priorities such as expanding support for Black entrepreneurship, addressing systemic housing discrimination, raising the federal minimum wage, and investing in historically Black colleges. It does not create new laws or mandate specific actions but commits the House to coordinating legislative efforts focused on these economic equity goals. The resolution was introduced by multiple representatives and referred to relevant committees for review.
