Having kids in school was really important, but then what we did, I think better than anyone, is we protected our citizens against this vax being used as a weapon.""We banned vaccine passports almost two years ago, and I think the powers that be from Biden on down, they wanted to marginalize people from society if you didn't take this. They wanted to deny you the ability to earn a living if you didn't take it, and they wanted kids to not even be able to go to school if you didn't take it."in 2021 regarding vaccine mandates in response to President Biden's executive order for COVID-19 vaccinations among all federal workers and contractors in the executive branch, and a vaccine mandate for companies with more than 100 employees.

We're also going to add protections so that people, you can't be fired for your job, but some businesses are treating people differently based on whether they've had an mRNA booster."
