Williamson County GOP Issues Medical Rights Resolution Against Any Potential COVID-19 Mandates

The Williamson County GOP issued a medical rights resolution on Wednesday refusing to “blindly submit” to any effort by the federal government to reinstate COVID-19 mandates and urging state lawmakers to do more to protect Tennesseans’ medical freedoms.

“We, as the Republicans of Williamson County, as Americans, as God-fearing Conservatives, will refuse to blindly submit, and we thank our State Legislators for the protections they have already enacted and beg them to do far more to protect our Medical Freedom and to prevent such a horrific overreach from ever happening again; and we ask for Governor Lee to task our state’s Attorney General to investigate violations of the Tennessee Constitution and other Covid-19 crimes,” the resolution reads.

According to the resolution sent to Governor Bill Lee, Attorney General Jonathan Skrmetti, Lieutenant Governor Randy McNally, Senate Leader Jack Johnson (R-Williamson County), and House Speaker Cameron Sexton (R-Crossville), the COVID-19 injections were experimental and could be deemed a violation of the Nuremberg Code, a set of ethical research principles for human experimentation, because the government threatened individuals with loss of liberty, their license, or career if they did not comply.

The resolution states that many COVID-19 injection recipients were not properly informed to make an “enlightened decision,” and the government dismissed any consideration of alternative treatments.

In addition, the resolution alleges that the federal government forced healthy individuals to wear masks that were never intended to be worn for extended periods, causing the wearers physical and mental health problems.

The GOP also details that many experts, centers, organizations, and administrations have signaled “a full expectation, as well as a willingness to return to masks, and mandates, and far more.”

According to Williamson County GOP Chairman Tracy Miller, the GOP issuing a medical rights resolution is “legitimate because, at this point, the pandemic seems like an old wound and a political resolution is akin to a sharp stick.”

Miller claimed that the pandemic was all about dividing people and taking away their liberty to see who would comply with the government mandates and who would resist.

“The pandemic was all about one basic function…division. It was about separating you from your rights. It was about creating a vast divide between people,” Miller said.

According to Miller, in political terms, the pandemic often fell neatly along the lines of Republican and Democrat, not always, but often. He contends that the pandemic fell more frequently along the lines of those who were willing to give up a bit of freedom for safety, and those who weren’t.

Miller said that this medical rights resolution attempts to move forward from the pandemic and ensure that something like this never happens again.

“So, believe it or not, a resolution is an attempt at reconciliation. We want to heal. We’re here to do the hard work. Things need to be changed so this doesn’t happen again. The first step, however, is to admit that there is/was a problem. We’re all Americans. We must unite within our God-given liberties, and we must encourage our representatives to keep fighting to protect both our state sovereignty and our medical freedom,” Miller said.

As previously reported by The Tennessee Star, State Representative Jason Zachary (R-Knoxville) said that Tennessee will not comply with any effort by the federal government to reinstate COVID-19 mask mandates and says that he promises to push back against any efforts by the federal government to implement COVID-19 restrictions.
