Florida GOP Gov. Ron DeSantis said the state will punish county and city governments for requiring their employees to get vaccinated against Covid-19, threatening a $5,000 fine for each violation.
DeSantis, calling it a way to"protect Florida jobs," said at a news conference that"you don't just cast aside people who've been serving faithfully over this issue -- over what's basically a personal choice on their individual health.
" "I just think it's fundamentally wrong. We should not be allowing the federal government to attack people's livelihoods," he said. Orange County Mayor Jerry Demings said in a news conference Monday that although"it could be a lot of money" the county will continue to"protect the greater collective of the people in our community" in the face of DeSantis' threat.
