Duncan Supports States Pushing Back Against Federal Mandates

Today, Congressman Jeff Duncan commended the state leaders, governors, and attorneys general who are leading the way in pushing back against President Biden's unlawful COVID-19 vaccine mandates. Congressman Duncan recently signed on to a letter led by Rep. Arrington supporting attorneys general nationwide for their actions to legally challenge President Biden's vaccine mandates.

"Americans should never be forced to choose between taking the shot or losing their livelihood to provide for their families. I am proud to see governors and attorneys general in states across the country, including in South Carolina, pushing back against the federal government's unconstitutional COVID-19 vaccine mandates and suing the Biden Administration," said Congressman Jeff Duncan. "I am thankful we have strong leaders in our states nationwide who are willing to stand up for individual liberty and the medical freedom of the employees of their state."

"This is about liberty, and the government has no authority to force the COVID-19 vaccine on Americans. I have no doubt President Biden's authoritative COVID-19 vaccine mandates imposed on over 100 million employees will fail to hold up in court," said Congressman Jeff Duncan. "Mark my words, we will continue the fight Biden's authoritative COVID-19 vaccine mandates because they have no place in the United States. Republicans in Congress plan to work with our colleagues in the states to push back against this legislatively, and I encourage leaders nationwide to keep fighting against such overreach. In a free country, medical tyranny cannot stand."
