Ron DeSantis (R) in Miami, Florida. (Photo by Joe Raedle\/Getty Images)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h5>OAN Newsroom<br \/>UPDATED 8:01 PM PT \u2013 Monday, September 13, 2021<\/h5>\n<p>Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) vowed to fight against Joe Biden\u2019s coronavirus vaccine mandates by promising to protect the jobs of those who have chosen not to be vaccinated. In a press conference on Monday, the Republican made clear he would especially defend the state\u2019s first responders who worked throughout the pandemic to make sure the people of the state were safe and healthy.<\/p>\n<p>On the topic of personal choice, the governor insisted the vaccine should not be forced onto people.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is not something that should be coerced onto people,\u201d he expressed. \u201cIt should be something they have access to and can make that decision for themselves.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Personal choice being a major theme of his talk, he explained how Biden\u2019s mandate could very likely do more harm than good.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI also think that what their doing is very harmful. If they honestly want more people to do this, they are causing a lot of people to dig in their heels,\u201d he discussed. \u201cThey are causing a lot of people to question and it\u2019s totally counterproductive.\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Governor DeSantis holds a press conference to address the recent attacks on Floridians\u2019 freedoms. <\/p>\n<p>Watch Live: <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/cqihDm4nFg\">https:\/\/t.co\/cqihDm4nFg<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Ron DeSantis (@GovRonDeSantis) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/GovRonDeSantis\/status\/1437432913289793542?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">September 13, 2021<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>DeSantis also talked about how the policies of the Biden administration have been attempting to hurt the state throughout the pandemic.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey shut down our cruise industry. We beat them in court on that and got that going, but that was the CDC just acting unilaterally,\u201d he asserted. \u201cCongress never legislated that.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Overall, the Republican made it clear the mandate is a massive overstep of federal power, which has been something the government has been doing throughout the pandemic.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s beyond just a mandate,\u201d he explained. \u201cWhat they\u2019ve been doing throughout all of COVID, they go back and find some statute from decades ago. They find some obscure regulation and then they take that as a pretext to be able to do ridiculous, unforeseen expansions of government power.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>One of the governor\u2019s solutions to combat mandates is to fine cities or counties which mandate the coronavirus vaccine $5,000 per infraction. DeSantis concluded these jobs matter, these livelihoods matter and people shouldn\u2019t be coerced out of a job through government power.<\/p>\n<h4>MORE NEWS:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.oann.com\/cdc-orders-afghan-flights-to-u-s-to-halt-amid-measles-outbreak\/\">CDC Orders Afghan Flights To U.S. To Halt Amid Measles Outbreak<\/a><\/h4>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Florida Gov.
