How many local government entities agree to these terms to get federal government money for COVID? "At the root of the concern is a provision within the U.S. Department of the Treasury’s contract for the funding, which states that the recipient must comply with the Treasury’s list of stipulations.
More importantly, it specifies, “Recipient also agrees to comply with all other applicable federal statutes, regulations, and executive orders, and Recipient shall provide for such compliance by other parties in any agreements it enters into with other parties relating to this award.”
The concern, activist Sheila Hemphill expressed to council, is that “all other applicable” directives could encompass things like vaccine mandates, contract tracing programs, and anything else the federal government issues. Upon agreement to the contract, Hemphill stated in an interview with The Texan, all city employees would then be treated as “contract workers” in the eyes of the federal government and thus bound to such employment directives."
