[TexasTowelie]

Republican senators are threatening to delay a major military bill, the National Defense Authorization Act, until they get a vote on their proposal to lift a Covid vaccine mandate for service members. Senator Angus King (I-ME) joins Andrea Mitchell to discuss. “Give me a break. We’re trying to keep people healthy. Members of the. Military have to have a whole battery of vaccinations when they sign up,” says King. “This is just rational health policy in an environment where a pandemic, which is contagious, could be devastating.”
