Anti-vaccine activists are targeting the ballot box, kicking off a process that could end in a statewide vote in their latest effort to change state law to ban vaccine mandates.

Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost’s office is reviewing a proposal for what’s called an initiated statute that would ban all vaccine mandates -- including coronavirus vaccines. The proposal is similar to House Bill 248, which stalled in the legislature for months before the House passed a relatively watered-down version last month that’s now being considered by the Ohio Senate.

The new initiated statute effort is in the very early stages of a costly, multi-step process that involves collecting hundreds of thousands of signatures from registered voters across the state.

I would prefer something a little different, even though I agree with what they are doing.

How About this instead:

Any US Citizen or Legal US Resident that can articulate a reasonable suspicion that TAXPAYER FUNDS are Being used to Treat ANY Vaccinated Person for COVID, Shall be Entitled to A 100% exemption from ALL Taxes on Income, Tips, Wages or Property for a period of not less than 5 years. All Public Employee’s and any other person receiving State Funds in any way, shall be EXEMPT!!

To the tune of “She’ll be comin round the mountain, when she comes”)
