It's more than symbolism. It fundamentally changes the 13th amendment and would shake the prison labor industry to its core.
In eight states — Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Mississippi, Oklahoma, South Carolina, and Texas — labor within government-run prisons can go unpaid.

:francis:It’s whatever... I’m not against it, but it shouldn’t be a priority with only for years to work and a Senate that isn’t going to fukk with it.
Seems like a waste of time, just to say hey look what we tried to do.
Let’s get healthcare done, school reform done and for Christ sake pandemic relief.

:snoop:someone dies from Covid every 30seconds...
...this abolishing slavery shyt can be kicked down the road far as I’m concerned.

They can do both. I'm surprised you're on board with any governmental action at all - aren't you a libertarian?

Libertarianism is abroad ideology, I'm not an anarchist.
Some govt. is fine and dare I say necessary.

That said, I no longer am confident our current congress can competently walk and chew gum.:francis:
In fact, I expect a gov shutdown.

Performative bullshyt. No one in the hood gives one single solitary fukk. No one struggling financially will give a fukk. It will not help one kid out of poverty. But it will give mfers who will push policies that destroy Black communities a photo opp to make themselves appear as though they give a fukk about Black ppl.

What if it ends prison labor? What if it helps end private prisons?

I dont think posters here care too much about prison labor of these threads are any indication.
