Summary

The Department of Transportation (DOT) has issued a memo prioritizing federal funding for communities with marriage and birth rates above the national average.

The directive, which applies to grants, loans, and contracts, also prioritizes projects benefiting families with young children.

A congressional aide criticized the policy, saying, “Considering fertility rates when prioritizing federal grants? We obviously have no idea what the full impact of that will be… It’s absolutely creepy. It’s a little ‘Chinese government.’”

The memo also blocks mask mandates and requires compliance with immigration enforcement.

        If I hadn’t then I wouldn’t have noticed you repeated yourself. STFU with this childish bullshit.

          You can claim morality all you want but at the end of the day I now have to fight a fascist dictator so my daughters dont grow up in it. So thank you. Thank you so much. I just wanted to make games.

            At the end of the day, they attacked you with two hands and you chose to fight one of them and side with the other.
