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.”
“I know, FOR CERTAIN, that when big companies get a call from Uncle Sam today ‘requesting’ something (like mandatory shots) 99% of big businesses will do as told,?”
And in return, Government does what big business calls and tells their bought and paid for Congressmen to do. And the Senior Executives of Executive Branch agencies who want to retire onto corporate boards will also.
A corporate/government partnership. Mussolini would recognize this as “fascism”.
What’s WITH her?
Boy, did we dodge a bullet
Yes we did - funny thing - the fog is clearing up now and a lot of “conservatives”.
