Jim Jordan, Attorney General Of Texas Call For People To Not Listen To President On Vaccine Mandates
Republican Ohio Rep. Jim Jordan and Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton both urged Americans on Tuesday to not listen to President Joe Biden or White House officials who are telling businesses to proceed with vaccine mandates despite a court-ordered pause.
In a Tuesday appearance on Newsmax, Paxton slammed the Biden administration and recommended businesses not listen to the White House over vaccine mandates, saying Biden is “bullying Americans.”
“I would urge businesses, don’t listen to the president, he’s bullying Americans,” Paxton said. “I think in his mind federal law doesn’t have a bearing, the constitution doesn’t have a bearing, court orders don’t have a bearing. He does what he wants… Let’s keep people working instead of pushing them out of jobs when we need them most at this time in our economy and our history.”
