Mike Lee introduces 9 anti-vaccine bills to exempt anyone 'on basis of a personal belief'

Sen. Mike Lee (R-UT) has introduced nine separate bills in an effort to undermine President Joe Biden's ability to mandate Covid-19 vaccines.

The Salt Lake Tribunecompiled a list of the bills that Lee introduced last week.

If enacted into law, the bills would allow the United States government to be sued over vaccine mandates and allow anyone to opt-out of mandates on "the basis of a personal belief."

Biden recently announced that all federal employees and contractors would be required to receive a Covid-19 vaccine or be subject to periodic testing. The president has also asked the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) to create a policy requiring businesses with 100 or more employees to mandate vaccines.

• S.2840 - A bill to permit civil actions against the United States for COVID-19 vaccination mandates.
