sano: Assorted right wing extremists and bible thumpers worked hard to prevent funding for birth control and abortion services in impoverished nations south of our border...

LurkerMom: What a bunch of baloney. ... Yes, the immigrant masses are coming because Biden is giving them a free all expense paid pass to come not to help them but in turn to vote democrat come future elections.

Well, sano is right. The Trump administration withheld funding from UNFPA, the United Nations Population Fund responsible for family planning and birth control, from FY 2017 - FY 2021.

If you'd just said that Biden restored the funding, you'd be right, too.

But the idea that "Biden is giving them a free all expense paid pass to come not to help them but in turn to vote democrat" is just plain old factually incorrect fearmongering. Non-citizens are prohibited from voting in federal elections.
