Democrats Sneak Provision Into $3.5 "Infrastructure" Bill to Fine Companies Up to $700,000 For Not Enforcing Biden's Vaccination Mandate -- For Each Violation
Scumbags.
President Joe Biden didn't just announce a Covid-19 vaccine mandate on companies employing 100 or more people, he plans to enforce it.
On Saturday, Speaker Nancy Pelosi's House quietly tucked an enforcement mechanism into their $3.5 trillion "reconciliation" bill, passed it out of the Budget Committee, and sent it to the House floor.
Buried on page 168 of the House Democrats' 2,465-page mega bill is a tenfold increase in fines for employers that "willfully," "repeatedly," or even seriously violate a section of labor law that deals with hazards, death, or serious physical harm to their employees.
The increased fines on employers could run as high as $70,000 for serious infractions, and $700,000 for willful or repeated violations--almost three-quarters of a million dollars for each fine. If enacted into law, vax enforcement could bankrupt non-compliant companies even more quickly than the $14,000 OSHA fine anticipated under Biden’s announced mandate.
