Wyoming governor prohibits vaccine passports for state entities

Gov. Mark Gordon signed a directive Friday prohibiting prohibited state entities from requiring “vaccine passports.”

Requirements that individuals show proof of having a COVID-19 inoculation, or “vaccine passports” have become a controversial topic. Several countries have adopted the measure or have shared plans to do so. Some private businesses, like certain airlines, say they will require proof of vaccination, too. In the U.S., the debate is split.

“I have serious concerns that a mandated vaccine passport program has the potential to politicize a decision that should not be politicized,” Gordon wrote in his directive, which was shared in a press release Friday.

The directive prohibits “state agencies, boards and commissions” from denying someone access to facilities or services based on their COVID-19 vaccination status. The directive also prohibits those entities from sharing an individual’s vaccination status without their consent.

have "Covid-19 passports" inorder to travel cross states lines and the world because many states and countries will require it. Therefore, again, republicans are keeping their constituents in the "deep deep deep state".
