Atlanta, GA – According to media reports, President Biden will sign executive orders requiring all federal workers be vaccinated against Covid-19, and direct the same standard be extended to employees of contractors who do business with the federal government. In response, Tea Party Patriots Action (TPPA) Honorary Chairman Jenny Beth Martin issued the following statement:

“This is a dark day in American history. Biden is launching a fundamental assault on the core of our constitutional rights – the right of each adult American to be the sovereign of his or her own body.  No American should be forced by the government – or anyone else, for that matter – to put something in their body they don’t want to take, or be forced to lose their job as a consequence.

“This decimates the doctor-patient relationship and instead invents a wholly new government-patient relationship. An individual’s health history, weighing individual medical risks vs. rewards, and maintaining informed consent will be gone if this action stands. Some may have underlying health concerns for not taking the vaccine, and now they’ll be discriminated against for having a preexisting condition.

“Every American – regardless of political party or vaccine status – should be outraged and opposed.  Tea Party Patriots Action is launching a new round of nationwide protests against medical mandates this month, and we encourage all Americans to join us in this fight.”
