All Hat No Cattle: Arkansas legislators look at blocking employer vaccine mandates

Arkansas legislators look at blocking employer vaccine mandates

Fresh from rejecting a proposal to allow schools to require masks for young students, some Arkansas lawmakers are now targeting businesses that require employees to be vaccinated against covid-19.

During a committee meeting Tuesday, legislators approved the study of a bill that would prohibit employers from requiring the disclosure of an employee's vaccination status.

At this point most people are either 95% immune to Covid or 100% immune to facts. - Randi Mayem Singer

Just Pass The Darn Infrastructure Bill!
Senate Democrats approved a $3.5 trillion budget resolution early Wednesday morning, setting the stage in the weeks and months to come for the party to craft and attempt to pass a sweeping economic package expanding the social safety net that President Joe Biden has made a signature agenda item without the threat of a filibuster from Republicans who oppose it.

Speaking of Donald Trump...

A federal judge on Wednesday narrowed a House subpoena for former President Trump's personal financial records, ruling that the congressional inquiry was overly intrusive but may proceed with a more limited scope.

U.S. District Court Judge Amit Mehta upheld the subpoena to the extent that it sought information about Trump's lease with the General Services Administration (GSA) for his D.C. hotel property and whether he violated the Constitution's emoluments clauses.

YouTube Suspends Randy Dandy Paul, Again.

YouTube suspended U.S. Sen. Rand Paul for seven days on Tuesday and removed a video posted by the Kentucky Republican that claimed cloth masks don’t prevent infection, saying it violated policies on COVID-19 misinformation.

It’s the second time this month that one of Paul’s videos has been taken down by YouTube for breaking its rules about misleading content.

Fauci says it is safe to watch youtube now that Rand Paul has been suspended. - Andy Borowitz

I’m old enough to remember when the GOP had an ‘anything goes’ policy to protect the USA after 9/11. We were led to believe torturing ‘enemy combatants’ was for the greater good. Now those same assholes won’t even get a vaccine or let kids wear a mask in school. - Noel Casler
