Mike Lee: Senate Republicans Could Defund Biden’s Vaccine Mandates

Sean Moran 17 Feb 2022

Sen. Mike Lee (R-UT) said Thursday that Senate Republicans have a “very real” chance of defunding President Joe Biden’s vaccine mandates if Republicans stay for the vote.

Lee and Sens. Roger Marshall (R-KS), Cynthia Lummis (R-WY), Mike Braun (R-IN), Rand Paul (R-KY), and Ted Cruz (R-TX) are leading the fight to defund Biden’s vaccine mandates. The conservatives said they would not expedite the passage of a continuing resolution (CR) to fund the federal government without a roll call vote on an amendment that defunds the enforcement of the remaining vaccine mandates.

Lee said, “@SenateGOP has a very real chance of defunding @POTUS’s remaining vaccine mandates IF every Republican stays for the vote.”
