Presidential hopeful Kamala Harris has started to unveil some of her campaign promises, and a particularly controversial one involves handing newborn babies a sack of four or five thousand dollars, sources have confirmed. 

“Just give ‘em the money, we’ll figure out how it works later,” said Harris, outlining her plan to rapturous applause from gathered democratic voters. “Children are the future, and I want our children to know that their future will involve a lot of handouts if they play their cards right. At least if we are able to take the White House in November, that is!”

Critics of Harris slammed her proposal as irresponsible spending.

“This doesn’t make sense at all,” said local full-time worker Justin King. “So I still have to pay out of pocket for my dental work because my medical insurance doesn’t cover the bones in my mouth, but we’re giving newborn thousands of dollars like they got second place on Jeopardy? What is happening?!”

As of press time, Democrats introduced a bill that would also give newborn babies in democratic families the right to vote.
