Gov. Kristi Noem (R-SD) is not backing Republican legislation seeking to ban so-called vaccine mandates within the state.
Republican state Reps. Jon Hansen and Scott Odenbach are trying to null businesses mandating their employees to get vaccinated against Covid-19 through the “COVID-19 Vaccine Freedom of Conscience Act.”
Noem claims such legislation is a slippery slope that could lead to other dictates toward businesses Republicans might not like. “If we mandate one thing, are we setting a precedent for what we are telling businesses they have to do far into the future?” Noem posed.
The Republican governor has, though, banned vaccine mandates for employees in state and local government in SD.
She has also argued that employees of private businesses opposed to a vaccine mandate can go work elsewhere.
“Workers whose employers are mandating a vaccine for continued employment have the power to say no,” Noem posted to Twitter on July 31. “Our robust economy and job market gives them the option to find a new employer that values personal choice and responsibility, and doesn’t force mandates on their employees.”
Then again she took the jab. So par for the course.
I do see her side, but she lost me already when she buckled under regarding letting boys says they’re girls.
I no longer consider her a presidential contender.
What’s WITH her?
Boy, did we dodge a bullet

She’s not wrong.
I’ve lost count of the number of stabs in the back we’ve suffered through since 11/3/2020.
Kristi is over...
The Peter Principal kicked in early for this loser, thank God.
I don’t trust this woman.
I fell out of love. Bye Kristi.
Vaccine and mask mandates are ludicrous, in my humble opinion. I’d never work for a company that would impose such stupidity.
Once people start telling women they can’t work at xyZ company if they’ve had an abortion they’ll understand. Btw, if every company is being pressured to force this it seems weird to pretend this is all about private corporations.
Not a reliable conservative for national purposes.
Does anyone know how dam stupid this is?
Especially with employers begging for workers?
As an employer does anyone think they should turn away a well qualified employee?
Ms Styles & Revisions strikes again.
A chamber of crony capitalist / Koch bros Owned Puppet ..
A complete Rhino Fraudc..
Her chief of staff is the SD C Of C head .
Completely owned by Globalist .
Bye Fraud .
She’s a corporate sellout.
So she's ok with banning the vax mandate for her people but the general public, the people she's supposed to be serving, screw them?
Basically the same as this
and some people think this is about health.
All of them do not appear to have any discernment.
The FDA rubber stamped the Pfizer jab, but at the same time admit the trials are still going on until 2025.
Whatever happened to trials first and then approval?
