Florida lawmakers are introducing two bills, SB-4B and HB-3B, for the benefit of protecting the jobs of employees who refuse to be vaccinated.
Under these new bills, employers that are found in violation by enforcing unconstitutional vaccination mandates on their employees face anywhere from a $10,000-$50,000 fine for each offense.
The opposition to these bills are crying foul because these bills require no public disclosure. The opposition fears some businesses may receive more favorable treatment, while others may be aggressively prosecuted.
Welcome to the ever-expanding frontier of American politics.
The larger and more important issue of forced vaccination, which is not an enumerated power of federal government, is being pushed to the back of the line, while accusation without proof by the opposition race to the forefront.
What about the right of privacy? If the opposition fears favorable treatment on one hand, and aggressive prosecution on another, but where is their concern for the individual who risks losing their job by living their beliefs and values?
Wouldn't it be nice if lawmakers from both sides of the aisle would embrace collectively the bigger picture of "general welfare" for its citizenry?
Partisanship is the new occult in todays political arena. It has become more important for lawmakers to find fault and tear down, than it is to work toward a consensus and build up.
Florida is a state that is attracting new residents at an alarming pace. I wonder if it has anything to do with the policy making that protects its citizenry against federal overreach?
When servants of government put partisanship ahead of its constituency, and general welfare, it is time to limit their participation it that government.
"Considering the natural lust for power so inherent in man, I fear the thirst of power will prevail to oppress the people" - George Mason
Our Forefathers always intended for there to be a continuous rotation of public servants within our government. They assumed that would happen via vote. But, technology, media, and times have changed. So, we must adapt.
With the activation of an Article V Convention of States, we the people can have a say in new amendment making, and rescind the lifestyle of career politicians and judges!
Florida remains steadfast in her sovereignty, but that is being threatened by partisanship and party agendas. We as voters must educate ourselves more about the government we have, and the government we want.
George Mason makes clear his vision for government: "Government is, or ought to be, instituted for the common benefit and security of the people, nation or community; whenever any government shall be found inadequate or contrary to these purposes, a majority of the community hath an indubitable, unalienable, indefeasible right, to reform, alter, or abolish it, in such manner as shall be judged most conducive to the public Weal,"
Let this be our call to action and let our legislators know what kind of government we want, and what our expectation is of them for providing it.
By joining Convention of States you not only have the opportunity to be a leader or volunteer, but through the COS university you can educate yourself for free, on what state and federal government is intended to be.
