Pelosi Slips Unanimous Consent Requirement Into Dems’ $2,000 Stimulus Bill, Likely Rigging It To Fail

Employers who do not comply with the regime would be fined $70,000, escalating to $700,000 for “willful” or “repeated” violations

Democrat House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has quietly slipped a provision to amend U.S. Code § 666 to levy $700,000 fines on companies that do not enforce highly controversial vaccine mandates into Democrats $3.5 trillion “reconciliation” budget bill, after Democrat president Joe Biden called for prosecution of businesses with over 100 employees that do not force workers to take the vaccine.

The provision would allow the Occupational Safety and Health Administration to fine companies $70,000 for not forcing employees to take the COVID vaccine, and escalate the fine to a staggering $700,000 for “willful” or “repeated” refusals to comply with the regime’s demands.

Located on page 168 of the 2,465 page bill is the new language that would allow the fines to be enforced under U.S. Code Section 666:

OCCUPATIONAL SAFETY AND HEALTH ACT OF 1970.—Section 17 of the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970 (29 U.S.C. 666) is amended— (1) in subsection (a) —   (A) by striking ‘‘$70,000’’ and inserting ‘‘$700,000’’; and (B) by striking ‘‘$5,000’’ and inserting ‘‘$50,000’’; (2) in subsection (b), by striking ‘‘$7,000’’ and inserting ‘‘$70,000’’; and (3) in subsection (d), by striking ‘‘$7,000’’ and inserting ‘‘$70,000’’

“The crippling change described on page 168 of the Democrats’ bill isn’t a typo or a clerical error,” Forbes reported. “It was inserted by design and, likely, with the hope that no one would notice before Democrats ram the bill through Congress.”
