On the eve of a House vote to end COVID emergency through legislation, the White House announced they would end the COVID-19 Emergency Declaration on May 11th. In the end this is all a matter of pure politics and posturing for narrative control, because the Democrat controlled Senate is not going to take up the House bills.
The Pandemic is Over Act
- Passed 220-210 in a vote that saw every Republican vote for it and every Democrat vote against it
- The Freedom for Health Care Workers Act, which would end the vaccination requirement for federal health care workers, passed 227-203 with help from seven Democrats
- Democrat votes came even though Democrat leaders on the House floor argued against both bills
