Take these regulatory yokes off the necks of the American people today by voting to amend H.R. 6617 
Fairfax, Va. – The United States Senate is poised to vote today on a critical funding bill, H.R. 6617, that includes funding to enforce President Biden’s vaccine mandates. Americans for Limited Government (ALG) is leading a nationwide campaign to defund the vaccine mandates. ALG President Richard Manning issued the following statement ahead of today’s expected voted in the Senate:
“Sen. Mike Lee (R-Utah) will be offering an amendment to the government funding continuing resolution this afternoon which would defund the vaccine mandates. This is an important amendment which should pass overwhelmingly as Republican and Democrat state and local leaders, including the Mayor of Washington, D.C., have lifted these mandates at the local levels. It is absurd to leave inflexible federal government strictures in place. It is time for the Senate to defund their enforcement of unconstitutional vaccine mandates. Americans for Limited Government launched a campaign a week ago, which resulted in 24.3 million emails being delivered to Congress demanding lawmakers defund the mandates. It is time for Congress to assert their Article One Constitutional powers to do so now.
“Americans for Limited Government urges Senators to support Sen. Lee’s actions to take these regulatory yokes off the necks of the American people today by voting to amend H.R. 6617 and sending it back to the House of Representatives for passage.”
