기본주택 정책은 기본소득 정책과 함께 이재명 지사가 내세우고 있는 기본 시리즈 정책 가운데 하나입니다.
이 지사는 어제 당·정·청이 결정한 재난지원금에 더해 경기도에서는 전 국민에게 재난지원금을 주겠다고 밝히면서 사실상 자신의 기본소득 정책을 강조한 모양새가 됐는데요.
이 과정에서 시작된 논란은 다른 여당 대선 주자들의 비판과 함께 오늘도 이어지고 있습니다.

President Joe Biden called on the Senate to pass the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act bill by May 26 – the one-year anniversary of Floyd’s death.
“We have all seen the knee of injustice on the neck of Black America,” Biden said, referring to Floyd’s death after he was kneeled on by former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin last year. “Now is our opportunity to make real progress.
Named in Floyd’s honor, the bill seeks to overhaul discriminatory practices in policing. It would bolster police accountability and prevent problem officers from moving from one department to another. The bill, which cleared the House in March, would also end certain police practices that have been under scrutiny.
President Biden, in his first address to a joint session of Congress Wednesday night, laid out his vision for America, through a slew of policy proposals and a legislative wish list, while vowing to work with both Republicans and Democrats to deliver on his agenda.
Biden delivered his address, which lasted just over an hour, from the House chamber Wednesday night, outlining proposals from continuing to address the coronavirus pandemic, to his jobs package, to universal preschool, healthcare, immigration reform, gun control, foreign policy and more. My fellow Americans, while the setting tonight is familiar, this gathering is just a little bit different. A reminder of the extraordinary times we’re in, Biden said upon taking the podium.
