Compensation of the Descendants of Charles Greenlee, Walter Irvin, Samuel Shepherd, and Ernest Thomas

Summary

The bill would allocate $4 million from the General Revenue Fund to the Department of State to provide monetary relief to the surviving descendants and estates of Charles Greenlee, Walter Irvin, Samuel Shepherd, and Ernest Thomas. Each named recipient would receive 25 % of the total amount, and anyone compensated under the act could not receive additional compensation for the same historic injustice. The measure seeks to address the civil‑rights violations suffered by the four men and their families.
