Nullify Federal Vaccine Mandates in Minnesota With SF 938

Members of the Minnesota Legislature are seeking to pass legislation protecting citizens from forced vaccinations. It is imperative that legislators boldly nullify the federal government’s unconstitutional mandates.

Senate File No. 938 (SF 938) is sponsored by senators Eric Lucero (R-Saint Michael), Cal Bahr (R-East Bethel), and Steve Drazkowski (R-Mazeppa). If enacted, it would be a significant step toward nullifying unconstitutional federal vaccine passports and mandates in Minnesota.

SF 938 declares in part:

To ensure the sovereignty of states’ rights guaranteed by the Tenth Amendment to the United States Constitution and to protect the fundamental individual liberties and privacies of all persons against an abusive federal government, no government entity or its subdivisions, agents, designees, or assigns shall have the authority to enforce or attempt to enforce any vaccine passport, pass, or credential in this state, whether by federal act, law, executive order, administrative order, court order, rule, regulation, statute, or ordinance.

In addition to nullifying federal vaccine passports and mandates, SF 938 creates a cause of action allowing individuals to sue those who violate the law.

Although the U.S. Supreme Court struck down Joe Biden’s OSHA vaccine mandate on employees, it upheld the federal government’s mandate on health workers. Furthermore, the Court’s opinion stated that Congress could vote to mandate vaccines on everyone, despite the U.S. Constitution not delegating any such authority to Congress. SF 938 would nullify any federal vaccine mandate, regardless of whether it is enacted by Congress, the president, a federal agency, or a federal court.

SF 938 is a great first step toward exercising the states’ constitutional authority to nullify unconstitutional federal actions under Article VI of the U.S. Constitution. It is imperative that the Legislature pass this bill without watering it down. Considering the current threat to liberty, any compromise is completely unacceptable.

The federal government and the political establishment will likely try to neutralize the Minnesota Legislature by claiming that federal laws and orders take precedence over any state law because of the Constitution’s so-called “Supremacy Clause.”

However, this is false. In reality, executive edicts that Congress never voted on — such as the unconstitutional orders Biden signed in September 2021 — are not even “federal law.” Furthermore, Article VI makes clear that only laws “made in pursuance” to the Constitution are the “supreme Law of the Land.” Unconstitutional executive vaccine mandates are not and therefore must be nullified.

Since the COVID-19 pandemic began, all levels of government have blatantly disregarded the Constitution and imposed a wide range of unprecedented and totalitarian restrictions. If freedom-loving Americans are to stop the imposition of a biomedical security state, it is imperative that citizens push back, rein in these government entities, and ensure they cease to violate our constitutional liberties.

Urge your state representative and senator to boldly nullify the unconstitutional federal edicts by passing SF 938 and to robustly protect all our God-given freedoms.
