San Francisco will offer a guaranteed income for the city’s transgender community.

I’m totally serious. And on top of that, the application has 97 gender options. Gotta’ love that. You just know that someone’s gonna’ kvetch about there not being 98. C’mon. You know somebody will.

News report:

The Guaranteed Income for Trans People (GIFT) Program will provide low-income transgender residents with $1,200 each month, up to 18 months to help address financial insecurity within the community.

In a statement, the City of San Francisco said: “GIFT is one of several programs the City is developing, implementing, and evaluating to identify how to best support San Francisco residents and promote economic stability and recovery.”

The city also said that the new pilot program is the first guaranteed income initiative to focus solely on transgender people and will provide 55 eligible participants with temporary income. Additionally, the city said it will provide the same individuals with “wrap-around” direct services, such as gender-affirming medical and mental health care, case management, specialty care services and financial coaching.

Some city should do the same with Christians. But just Christians. They get a guaranteed income. Let’s see how that goes over. Can’t wait to see.
