Andrew Yang announced in his DemDebate opening statement that his campaign will raffle off 10 “Freedom Dividends” of $1,000 a month, which he says he's personally financing as a way to illustrate how a Universal Basic Income can impact daily lives
Presidential candidate Andrew Yang announced in his opening statement at Thursday’s debate that his campaign will raffle off 10 “Freedom Dividends,” making his signature policy proposal to give each person older than 18 years old $1,000 a month central to his third debate appearance.
Yang is personally financing the Freedom Dividends that his campaign is giving out during the campaign as a way to illustrate how a Universal Basic Income can impact daily lives. Yang’s campaign -- to date -- has given freedom dividends to one person in Iowa, Florida and New Hampshire. Yang’s campaign, in announcing the plan, said that they ensured the giveaway is “fully complaint with all FEC regulations,” despite some experts raising questions about whether a campaign can give money back to their supporters.
Yang said during the debate that it was “unprecedented” to announce such a giveaway to ���someone watching this at home right now.”“It’s original,” Buttigieg said with a smirk. “I’ll give you that.” Yang campaign manager Zach Graumann said the campaign is “excited to work together with our supporters to help create more stories about what the Freedom Dividend means for American families. It will enable and empower citizens to pay their bills, switch jobs, take care of loved ones, and plan for the future.”
