House Democrat introduces bill to prevent Trump campaign from requiring COVID-19 liability waivers at rallies
By Cristina Marcos - 06/16/20 12:17 PM EDT

A new bill introduced on Tuesday by Rep. Mark Pocan (D-Wis.) would prevent President Trump's reelection campaign from issuing liability waivers, protecting it from lawsuits should supporters attend a rally and contract the coronavirus.

Pocan, a co-chair of the Congressional Progressive Caucus, named the legislation the Refusal to Accept Losses or Liability In Every Situation Act (RALLIES) Act.

The bill would ban enforcement of liability waivers for indoor gatherings of 1,000 people or more in localities where the number of COVID-19 cases has been increasing in the preceding 14 days.

Trump's campaign is set to hold a rally in Tulsa, Okla., on Saturday, which will be the first since the coronavirus pandemic began.

More childish bullsh*t. Something the house rats exceed at producing. In fact that’s all they produce anymore.

  • I don't believe in Trump anymore, he's an illusion
I wonder, would they even have the right to prohibit it? What law are they citing? I can't wait for some 'protester to sue BLM, now that they are filthy rich, if they contract Covid.

I just want to know what the waiver is supposed to do?  Either you think its safe or you don't.  If Trump is that worried he shouldn't have them.  Because those people may sign the waiver but the people who get it from them don't get a choice.

It's an effort to lessen legal liability.  Two different doctors of mine require the same waiver before the doc will see you in person.

Both offices also take your temperature and require a facemask as part of the entrance screening.

They do not.  This is just another way to keep their jackass base inflamed and the name "democrat" in the news during the House's on-going self-imposed spring quarantine.

You obviously don't even understand the subject. The bill was introduced by the democrat, and has nothing to do with what "Trump is that worried."

Get some training wheels on that trike.

I understand Trump doesn't want to be held liable if anyone gets COVID.  Unfortunately if someone gets it they will give it to others.
