California introduces ‘Ebony Alert’ to prioritize search for missing Black children.
California Governor Signs Bill to Create “Ebony Alert” for Missing Black Children
California governor Gavin Newsom has taken a significant step towards prioritizing the search for missing black children in the state by signing a bill on Sunday. This bill, known as Senate Bill 673, aims to establish an “Ebony Alert” that will focus on locating black youth who have gone missing under suspicious or unexplained circumstances, are at risk, developmentally disabled, cognitively impaired, or have been abducted. You can read the full text of the bill here.
Similar to the well-known Amber Alert system, the Ebony Alert will be available for California law enforcement agencies to utilize starting from January 1. It will specifically target missing black youth aged between 12 and 25, ensuring that their cases receive the attention they deserve.
Governor Newsom has been actively signing progressive bills into law, demonstrating his commitment to positive change. In a recent move, he signed a bill that raises the minimum wage for fast food workers in the state to $20 per hour, significantly improving their earning potential. Additionally, the Democratic legislature passed a bill in September that grants low-income Mexican residents living within 45 miles of the California-Mexico border the opportunity to pay in-state tuition at select community colleges in Southern California. These actions highlight the governor’s dedication to creating a fair and inclusive society.
