The States Stand Up: Florida Gov. DeSantis Vows Special Session to Ban Biden's Vaccine Mandates

When the Framers created our federalist system, they imagined the federal and state governments acting as checks and balances on one another.

If a state government violated the U.S. Constitution, the federal government had the power to step in and bring them back into alignment with the rest of the states.

The converse is also true (though big-government elitists don't want you to remember). If the federal government imposes mandates or orders that violate our liberties, the states are supposed to be a bulwark against that overreach. They're supposed to stand up to protect the residents of their states when they see the federal government exceeding its constitutional bounds.

Some states take their duty more seriously than others, but no one can doubt Florida Governor Ron Desantis' commitment to standing up for Floridians. Time and again, he's pushed back against unconstitutional mandates from the federal government, and his latest announcement does just that.


At a rally this week, the governor and Convention of States Endorser vowed to call a special legislative session to ban President Joe Biden's vaccine mandates.

“We will be calling the Legislature back for a Special Session. We want to make sure that individuals in the state of Florida have their rights protected,” DeSantis said.

I deleted my previous post because it named a company (a customer of mine) that just terminated a sizeable number of its employees for refusing to be vaccinated. There are more employees of this customer who are next in line to be terminated and I do not want to say anything to make their situation worse, so I deleted my previous comments.
