Texas Gov. Abbott issues order banning Covid vaccination mandates in rebuke of Biden
By Dartunorro Clark
Texas Gov. Greg Abbott issued an executive order Monday prohibiting any entity,
including private businesses,
from imposing Covid-19 vaccination requirements on employees or customers.
"The COVID-19 vaccine is safe, effective, and our best defense against the virus, but should remain voluntary and never forced," Abbott said in a statement.
Abbott, a Republican, said in his order that it was prompted by the Biden administration's vaccination mandate, which he said was federal overreach.
