White House press secretary Jen Psaki claimed Monday that Walt Disney World halting its employee vaccine mandate showed Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis has taken “steps backward” fighting the COVID-19 pandemic.
“They’re based in Florida, and obviously, the governor there has consistently taken steps backward as it relates to fighting the pandemic, not forward,” Psaki told reporters, Fox News reported.
Psaki’s comments come after DeSantis signed four bills last week empowering private businesses to allow more vaccine exemptions in the wake of President Joe Biden’s employer vaccine mandate earlier in November.
“Nobody should lose their job due to heavy-handed COVID mandates, and we had a responsibility to protect the livelihoods of the people of Florida,” DeSantis said of the legislation.
