That's why city officials in Pomona, California — a city in LA county — are planning to offer guaranteed basic income to new parents. The basic income pilot — called Pomona Household Universal Grants Pilot Program — is run through the city and FORWARD, an organization that helps governments administer resources to their communities. Pomona's program mirrors over 100 basic income pilots across America. Basic income continues to face political and legal opposition across the US, and not all policymakers agree that cash payments are a sustainable approach to poverty. Have you benefited from a guaranteed basic income program?
