The Resource Center Matamoros in Mexico is handing out flyers asking migrants to ‘vote for President Biden’
The flyer reads: "You do not need documentary proof of citizenship to register to vote. You can vote if you simply swear you are eligible."
The Resource Center of Matamoros, Mexico (RCM) - which helps migrants reach the southern border, is handing out flyers asking illegal migrants to "vote for President Biden."
The flyers were obtained by Muckraker.com and shared on X by the Oversight Project, a Heritage Foundation watchdog group. They encourage illegal migrants to vote for President Joe Biden when they arrive in the United States:
The flyer reads, "Reminder to vote for President Joe Biden when you are in the United States (...) You do not need documentary proof of citizenship to register to vote. You can vote if you simply swear you are eligible."
According to its website: "The Matamoros Resource Center (RCM) is a humanitarian organization that provides a safe space where refugees at the southern Texas-Mexico border can access legal and social support services that support their right to the asylum process."
A Muckraker reporter spoke with Gaby Zavala, founder of RCM. The journalist told her that he was "trying to help as many people as possible before Donald Trump is elected. Zavala responded: "We are in the same boat." This conversation was recorded and broadcast on X.
Gaby Zavala is linked to Soros
The Oversight Project revealed that Zavala was the organizer of La Union del Pueblo Entero (LUPE), a social services organization in San Juan, Texas. This group is listed as a partner of the George Soros-owned Open Society Institute.
According to the Oversight Project, "RCM has significant ties to Soros-funded nonprofits operating in the United States:"
Center founder denies it
Despite all the evidence, Zavala told NPR that she has no connection to the flyers:
"Zavala said her group, Resource Center Matamoros (RCM), is focused on helping asylum-seekers and has nothing to do with politics. 'We have never encouraged people to vote for anyone, said Zavala, who added that she is well aware that noncitizens are ineligible to vote. She said she would never tell somebody that can't vote — that I know can't vote — Hey, go vote.'"
