Senator Did Not Claim Abolishing Lasagna Was a Liberal Goal

On April 28th, Iowa Senator Joni Ernst gave a presentation to congress in which she criticized the Biden administration ahead of the president’s inaugural address to congress. She claimed that instead of working for the good of the American people, Biden was only pursuing policies that placated the far left of the Democratic Party. 

To support her statement, she presented a chart titled “Liberal Fantasy Island.” A viral version of this chart included unusual policies such as “sex blimps,” “only gay people get to go to restaurants,” and  “abolish lasagna.” 

Soon, the hashtag #AbolishLasagna started trending.
