A | ST. LOUIS -- St. Louis is launching a program that seeks to help low-income families by providing them with $500 monthly payments for 18 months.The program is a signature priority for Mayor Tishaura Jones, who said Tuesday that the money will go to hundreds of city households, the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reported. She believes it will help rebuild neighborhoods and prevent the root causes of crime.“St. Louis’ guaranteed basic income will give hundreds of St. Louis families the resources they need to lift themselves out of poverty, giving them a strong foundation to grow and to thrive,” Jones said at a news conference.The Board of Aldermen approved the program last year. The city will use $5 million in federal pandemic aid. Meanwhile, St. Louis native Jack Dorsey, who co-founded Twitter and Square, is contributing $1 million.Jones announced a website for those interested. Applications will be open between Oct. 23 and Nov. 1, and the city will start sending the money, on debit cards, in December.The concept isn't new. During the pandemic, the federal government temporarily expanded the child tax credit to send families up to $300 per month for each child. Researchers said it cut child poverty in half. Other cities already experimenting with guaranteed basic income include Baltimore; Chicago; Denver; Birmingham, Alabama; and Columbia, South Carolina.In 2021 and 2022, a round of one-time $500 checks went to more than 9,000 St. Louis households, aimed at helping to help pay for groceries, utilities and other essentials.The new effort is expected to send money to roughly 540 St. Louis households with parents or guardians of children attending city public schools, including charter schools. Eligibility is limited to those making 170% of the federal poverty line or less — about $42,000 for a family of three.。 Kenny 编译 3月10日下午，行动党党魁、明年将担任新西兰副总理的David Seymour在Parnell街区发生电动自行车（e-bike）事故。 Seymour说当他在路中间摔倒后遭到了路人的言语羞辱。
B | Advertise with us 据英文《先驱报》报道，周日傍晚时分，Seymour在参加完圣三一大教堂的活动后，骑着电动自行车离开。 “我没有看到车，不是他们的错，他们有优先路权。所以我用力踩刹车，意识到我要侧翻了，同时还意识到哪怕如此也会撞上车，于是我更用力地猛踩刹车，然后就翻车了。” Seymour说他最终没有撞上汽车，司机也很快停下车来查看他的情况。他说除了手腕酸痛外没有受伤，路人也给他送水和询问他是否需要搭车回家。 但摔倒在路中间的短暂时刻，他说自己遭受了言语羞辱。 “一个人走过来拍摄我。我觉得‘这有点怪’，然后他说‘知道吗，有时你这是罪有应得，’”Seymour说。 “他用英式口音说’看你对毛利人做了什么，你只是个脱离现实的富二代（trust-fund baby）’。” Seymour说自己当时感到莫名其妙：“我想，我是毛利人，我没有信托基金啊？” Seymour因为提出《条约原则法案》而备受争议。
C | 他呼吁恢复《怀唐伊条约》原本的含义，同时就条约原则进行全民公投。
D | 毛利群体广泛认为这是对毛利人自决权的削弱。 Seymour并不是今年第一个因电动车出事的政客。 前国家党党魁、刚被任命新西兰交通局局长的Simon Bridges在1月发生电动滑板车事故。Bridges脸部擦伤，左手手腕骨折，被送往医院救治后打上了石膏。 他说感到没发生更严重的后果让他觉得很“幸运”。
E | 目前电动自行车和电动滑板车不被归类为机动车辆。它们被允许在公路、自行车道和人行道上骑行。出事故时最有可能伤及的是骑手而不是行人。 相关阅读： 短短三天内又一辆电动滑板车引发火灾！这些方面一定要注意 周末一辆电动滑板车起火，造成一人重伤，消防官员发出警告 奥克兰市中心一电动滑板车突然爆炸：“碎片飞溅”刺耳巨响惊到工人 更多电动滑板车出现在奥克兰街头，你会加入骑行一族吗？ 注：本文为编译/原创，欢迎转发分享；但严禁复制等未经授权的非法使用。违反上述声明者，本网将追究其相关法律责任。使用授权请联系[email protected]。
