Federal Contractors
BATON ROUGE, LA – Louisiana Attorney General Jeff Landry has
filed a lawsuit against Joe Biden's misguided and unconstitutional vaccine
mandate for federal contractors.
In a video message available for download and broadcast
here, Attorney General Landry announced that Mississippi and Indiana are
joining him in challenging the legality of Biden’s latest overreach.
“As the chief legal officer of Louisiana, I am taking action
to prevent the government from forcing Louisiana citizens to inject something
into their bodies,” said Attorney General Landry. “I have already defeated the
Biden Administration in court over issues of illegal immigration and domestic
energy; and now, I am working to win this lawsuit on the issue of personal
liberty.”
Attorney General Landry asserts that medical decisions
should be made between patients and doctors, not mandated by the government.
Additionally, Attorney General Landry emphasizes that Biden’s policy will have
drastic consequences for Louisiana, including the loss of billions of dollars.“
Joe
Biden is trying to bully our State and its citizens into complying with his
unlawful mandate,” concluded Attorney
General Landry. “I will not stand by; I will continue to stand up – fighting
for Louisiana and her people.”
