John Conyers, the ranking member of the Judiciary Committee, has introduced legislation to study the effect of reparations every year (or most years, my memory is hazy on this) since he's been in Congress (50 years!). It has never once come up for a committee vote, I believe, let alone a floor vote.He says we haven't even studied how reparations would affect a community, so that's probably where we should start.
