Rep. Thomas Massie, a Kentucky Republican, announced on Thursday that his office would not adhere to the Washington, D.C., vaccination mandate that goes into effect on Saturday.

"The DC vaccine mandate kicks in this weekend. My office will not comply," Massie tweeted.

"We will not show papers. We will not order takeout from restaurants that require papers for dine in. We will get our food from Virginia or we will bring it to work," he added.

For DC public servants to refuse the jab may fall under the SCOTUS decision yesterday. Private places can’t force it but if an office gets Medicare money they can force someone to get the jab.

Schiff and Schumer: “Does that include bribes and laundered money to us or just Medicare?”

The decision yesterday did not prohibit private business from mandating the shot in their own. It just said that OSHA cannot force businesses to impose a mandate.

I live in a county in CA that mandates vax passports for restaurants but in actuality the restaurants rarely ask. And those that do, I avoid. The Congressmen could test the waters of their favorite watering holes a bit.

Why do we have a passport for a vax that wanes after 10 weeks? I guess don’t give them any ideas. . .soon it will be a booster needed every 10 weeks to eat out. . .

But will these Medicaid and Medicare providers require customers to be vaxxed? Will Medicaid and Medicare recipients be forced to be jabbed? I have a vague recollection that the courts have ruled in the past that welfare/Medicaid recipients cannot be drug tested in order to receive government services. So I’m curious about how these things will evolve.

In 2023 the Republican congress should re-take control of Washington DC as “home rule” has been an abject disaster.

Vaxx passports are the new Prohibition.

A lot more non-compliance is necessary here. The real disease are the corrupt leftists in leadership positions.

In effect, yes. But there is a key difference. Prohibition was backed by a Constitutional Amendment. Vaxx passports are backed by autocratic fiat.

They’re trying to push people into a revolution, hoping to put the citizens down like rabid dogs.
