During a sit-down with Fox News, Governor DeSantis noted that Florida’s taken action against counties which implement COVID vaccine mandates. Leon County, Florida recently earned fines surpassing $3 million, due to their implementation of COVID vaccine requirements.
DeSantis later noted Biden federal vaccine mandate is at odds with the Constitution. Later in the interview, DeSantis also stated this mandate is going to wreak horrors and devastation on the nation’s economy.
The Florida governor is furthermore moving to have the state legislature pass bills into law that prohibit COVID vaccine mandates, not just for customers in Florida, but also for workers.
DeSantis vs. Biden
Since Biden got into office, he’s repeatedly butted heads with the Republican governor of Florida. DeSantis maintains that he will not stand by and let this president trample over Floridians’ freedoms, jobs, and abilities to engage in society.
Earlier this year, Biden told DeSantis and other GOP governors to remove themselves from his way. However, the Florida governor pushed back. DeSantis professed so long as Biden is attacking Floridians’ freedoms and jobs, he’ll continue standing in Biden’s way.
