Ilhan Omar called the governor of Texas a 'hypocrite' for defending the 'right to choose' on vaccine [View all]
a week after the state passed a restrictive abortion law
Rep. Ilhan Omar called Texas Gov. Greg Abbott a "hypocrite" over his contrasting stances on the "right to choose" when it comes to vaccines and abortions.
The Biden administration announced Thursday it would require businesses with more than 100 employees to implement a COVID-19 vaccine mandate for their employees, or submit them to weekly testing. The announcement prompted swift backlash from many Republicans, including the lone star state's governor.
"Biden's vaccine mandate is an assault on private businesses. I issued an Executive Order protecting Texans' right to choose whether they get the COVID vaccine," Abbott said in a tweet. "Texas is already working to halt this power grab."
But Omar was quick to pounce on the governor's support of the "right to choose" when it comes to vaccines.
