(WBRC) - Governor Kay Ivey responded to President Joe Biden’s announcement Thursday about sweeping new federal vaccine requirements. “Once again, President Biden has missed the mark.

    We are walking a tight rope hear, but this is America. If we start mandating a vaccine that has not been approved by the FDA but maybe a couple of weeks. We are opening up Pandora’s box. I am vaccinated, I took my 70 year old mother to get vaccinated. Viruses are a part of life. We haven’t seen this in 100 years. Yes most should get vaccinated, but mandates are a socialist - communist move. We open the door for other issues .

    Memaw's high stepping. She has my vote. I am all for the vaccine and those who want to take it, what I am not for is my government telling me what I have to do. You people who think that we are supposed to do what the government says instead of government doing what we say really need a refresher course on American rights. Either you believe in the constitution or you don't.

    A word-for-word quote from on MeeMaw on July 22, 2021 - “It’s time to start blaming the unvaccinated folks, not the regular folks. It’s the unvaccinated folks that are letting us down.”
