Juneteenth to become 1st new federal holiday since 1983

The bill passed with overwhelming bipartisan support, but activists say it’s a far cry from the policy changes they have called for.

  1. The USA , GROSS NATIONAL INCOME, JUST LOST ANOTHER DAY OF POSITIVE WORKING INCOME.
    AND YOUR GRANDCHILDREN WILL PAY THE ADDITIONAL MOUNTING DEBIT. YOU CAN NOT FIX STUPID.. way to enslave a new generation of Americans further.###

  2. Riots,police resigning, heavy crime, drug and human trafficking in our cities across nation,border issues,and this is the bullshit we are getting from White house and all media coverage..

  3. I’m fine with this. But Give me something of substance. Not a symbolic gesture. Give me police reform. Not a another holiday a police officer can kill me on without any repercussions.

  4. Not happy with leftist appropriating a Texas day of reflection. We have come together for decades regarding this issue. How dare this social justice degrade what is exclusively Texan!

  5. I CALL BS! STRAIGHTBS! This is just another gov/media attempt to pacify Black America while not doing a damn thing meaningful. Next will be a giant George Floyd statue complete with banners, a parade, lots of media coverage and some brainwashed black poet or singer talking about freedom. Fortunately not all black people fell for this. Thanks for the recognition but go F**k yourselves.

  6. Many are questioning WHY Are we celebrating this and and WHY that? If anyone can show me proof that JESUS CHRIST was BORN DECEMBER 25. I would consider your questions.
    HINT: ALL THE BIRTH RECORDS OF JERUSALEM WAS DESTROYED IN 70 CE WHEN THE ROMANS INVADE THEM.

  7. Finally a holiday that designates the day republicans freed black slaves from Democrat plantations. That’s a fact. The only question remains, Why are some blacks STILL ON the Democrat plantation. Every June 19th, stand proud republicans, and bury your head in shame Democrats.

  8. I didn't even know there was a new holiday until I went to a couple of my routes to find them close. I'm thinking why is this place close not like it's a holiday. Then someone said it was. I'm like did I accidentally travel to a parallel earth since when is June 18th a holiday. Of crouse they said it was a new holiday Joe Biden just signed. So I shouldn't have even been working today since my job takes federal holidays off.

  9. For all the naysayers of Biden signing the Juneteenth Holiday, two things first grind your teeth to dust over the comparison of Trump giving that one person, Rush Limbaugh, the Medal of Freedom as contrasted to Biden creating a national holiday for an entire country that recognizes an entire group of the population being freed from 400 years of slavery. Everyone now needs to watch where they walk. There will be those who’ll toss out severed their noses.

  10. Brilliant, white politicians voting them selves a day off. Closing federal offices that poor blacks reply on and a day off from school that put their children further back on the under funded education they now get. Happy juneteenth!

  11. If you are Black what do you think about the 57,000 Asian and Latino still inslavery in the US? If you are Asian and Latino what do you think about juneteenth ending slavery in the US when it is still rampent at our boarder?

  12. Caucasian people's way of paying reparations I mean really how many more holidays are they going to keep getting paid to overlook the racists stink that's in America

  13. Im against this,catering to BLM and other radicals,,,maybe a American Indian day would be better then this crap.I wont celebrate it.

  14. I'm a Mexican, that lives in Mexico never even been to the US, I find it incredible that people wave another countries flag colours, in the land that now provides for them, the celebration is very good in my opinion, but if america is truly this hellhole that half the Americans describe, why won't you at least try to live and lift up the territories were you come from? Wouldn't a mass immigration of educated people that originate from America go back to their roots, let's say Congo, wouldn't that really change the panorama of that country and wouldn't you be able to create a paradise? Just a thought. Wouldn't it be easier to let the Whities do their thing in their "stolen" land?

    btw Not negating at all that your ancestors were literally sold as slaves, but wouldn't you this day be able to make the conscious decision to go back to where you ancestors were striped from? And make things right with your people? (W your people I'm referring to the people that you consider your own, whether that's Irish, Italian but mostly black)

    I put stolen between quotation marks, because the land was supposedly stolen from my people, but my people stole that land from other people and so on and on and on…

  15. So will Cesar Chavez Day be federal???… Will Ulysess S. Grant get a federal holiday???… BLM is racist… It's about black or nothing… Americas is breastfeeding blacks way too much…

  16. they got mad that the stock market was open tomorrow, what a joke, If it was to close we are talking about billions on dollars being expired worthless in contracts. which will not be allowed by Jerome Powell.

  17. Up next: Reparations for what the United States stole from my people. They stole my ancestors land through fake treaties. They pillaged, infected, and killed 95% of my people. Europeans intentionally used biological weapons of mass destruction to clear the way for European settlers. This bill has nothing to do with us, the original inhabitants of these lands.

  18. Oh good, ANOTHER DAY the government monopoly union employees get paid for, NOT DOING ANYTHING. Paid for with taxes by Americans Citizens with REAL jobs. It's only about GETTING A 3 DAY WEEKEND! Proof they already move the date to Friday the 18th. Lied 2 Again.

  19. That setting a bad precedent. Every year from now on when the 19th falls on a Saturday or Sunday everybody was one at extra week day off. That is just poor planning.
