The policies in Los Angeles are also negatively affecting Latinos, with an estimated 2.1 million Latinos being banned from businesses because of COVID policies. In all three cities, African-Americans have the lowest vaccination rate of any racial group.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Democrat policies are once again negatively affecting African-Americans. The biggest supporter of these policies is none other than President Joe Biden.
