Rhode Island Democrats are proposing legislation to double the income taxes owed by residents with monthly fines added if they refuse to get vaccinated.
Phil Kerpen found this yesterday:
This is real legislation introduced by Democrats in Rhode Island.
Everyone is mandated to take COVID vaccines.
If you or your kids don't, you pay DOUBLE on your state income taxes.https://t.co/svkbdyDirA pic.twitter.com/WxqlR7p5MJ

It literally says that every eligible resident of Rhode Island will be required to get a COVID vaccine.
If a resident doesn’t comply, the state will fine them $50 per month and that resident will “owe twice the amount of personal income taxes.”
Not only that, but they require employers to require proof of vaccines for their employees and if they don’t comply, they’ll be fined $5,000 every month.
This is Democrat authorianism on steroids. Ted Cruz responded to this saying “THIS is today’s Democrat Party.”
Since when did Rhode Island become more socialist than New York and California?
