Where does Harris say it’s a race-based program?
In her tweet. I bolded the "Black" so you can see the race.
After generations of discrimination, it’s time to give Black families a real shot at homeownership — historically one of the most powerful drivers of wealth. My new policy will remove unfair barriers Black Americans face when they go to qualify for a home loan.
I don’t see any quotes where Harris says it’s race-based. She says the program will help black people, which is great. That doesn’t mean you have to be black to benefit from the program.
"So we must right the wrong and -- after generations of discrimination -- give black families a real shot at homeownership -- historically one of the most powerful drivers of wealth," Harris said in a speech Saturday at the Essence Festival in New Orleans in what promises to be the beginning of a series of policy rollouts focusing on the black community.twitter.com

Think of this along the lines of student loans. How's that working out?
Once you "give" something most people will stand in line and perceive government/taxpayer giving as a "gift". So in the mind of many, a gift comes without any requirements, even if it's true to say there are stipulations in order to receive the benefit.
Again... it's another "form" of a student loan program, doomed to failure, alienates the taxpayers, creates a burden, but watch for Ole Bernie to come along with a forgiveness program, for the debt.
How about a "service" that teaches poor folks what they need to do in order to own a home? Y'all remember the saying about, "give a man a fish and he feeds for a day, teach him to fish and he feeds for a lifetime".
Apparently Kamala didn't learn that in law school.
Ahhh a new twist to the Community Reinvestment Act.
A new twist to Repatriations without calling it that.
Similar to 2006, you get an Appraisal $20,000 over value and walk away from closing with an EBT card loaded for a lifetime of free groceries.
