Persons who have not been vaccinated and have one on one contact with residents move about freely. Last Sat. I had a visit scheduled with my sister. 45 minutes before our scheduled visit my niece received call that we could not come because a staff member tested positive. Another 14 day quarantine

Many people who have had the vaccine also get the Covid. Do some research and get some knowledge before judging others. You are embarrassing yourself.

They have to have a flu shot! This is a viral respiratory disease worse than the flu.

Vaccination rates in some places remain low. Only 48% of Missouri's nursing home employees are vaccinated -- the nation's third-lowest rate.

We live in America where we are Free to make a choice. Remember, “My Body, My Choice?” Employers who force it will end up losing customers and not enough employees to do the work, forcing them out of business. Good Riddance! Tyranny has to Stop!

Max

Although I believe it is the best choice for most people, some people can not get the vaccine, for numerous health reasons. It is also Un Constitutional to force this on people. But Joe is also Un Constitutional, and Un American.

FYI, Did you know: American citizens do not have to listen to the President. Citizens do not have to listen so government. The people, in and of themselves, are the government.

Putting your family members in a nursing home tells me a lot about you.

Everyone should support the bill.

Eric Smith

They should support the president and the constituents who voted them in. That includes us who believe you work for what you get. No handouts!

Toasty

The cuts didn't go deep enough. Ex. Musk's criticisms about how the EV mandates would be cut (good thing), but no cuts to the auto industry subsidies (bad thing). The liberal/socialist media is already lying to folks how this bill is throwing grandma under the bus. Proof? Look at the 'No' comments.

It is a wealth transfer Bill: From the poorest Americans to the richest.

Anita Grace Ward

Please don’t do that! Trump promised no cuts to Medicaid but her we are just 5months into his term and he is doing that!

Laura Cochran

Help for the rich to get richer and it puts more average people in worse situations. Don't cut Medicaid or Social Security

Paula Garrett

Millionaires and billionaires don't need a tax break as much some people need health care. Also, social security's fund needs fixed which would have been a better use for that $45 million he wasted on a parade. Trump has all his priorities wrong.

James Itczak

This is a rash and extreme bill and someone needs to speak up and slow this down, people are going to suffer for this,

Gary Carter

They were elected to represent their constituents, ALL CONSTITUENTS not just those whom they perceived voted for them. Don't let anyone hold their vote hostage.

The States should be educating people on how to keep their legs crossed.

Let the free market decide the fate of abortion clinics.

Max DeYoung

We need another question of the day, to further divide the community.
