Hillary clinton and Bernie Sanders sparred in south political experts believe sanders continues to show he is the true progressive. Her record. Showing himself as a better friend to clinton to undocumented immigrants as we fact check. He said unoccupied minors surged across the border and listen to what he claims children did. If children came from honduras where theres probably more violence than any place in this country and i said welcome those children into this country, secretary clinton said, send them back. Sanders is mostly true, according to politifact, but he gives an oversimplified view. Clinton did not say they should be sent back no matter what. She did ask the government to identify responsible adults but expressed as many as possible should be sent back. It was the administrations policy to discourage young people from attempting the trip. Clinton suggested sanders wants to set back a major obama administration. By 2030, it aims to cut Carbon Emissions by 32 from 2005 levels. The clean power plant is something that senator sanders has said he would delay implementing, which makes absolutely no sense. Our panel Fact Checkers found clinton to be in the wrong, false.
