HELENA, Mont. -- While many large companies across the U.S. have announced that COVID-19 vaccines will be required for their employees to return to work in-person, there is one state where such requirements are banned: Montana.
Under a new law passed by the states Republican-controlled Legislature earlier this year, requiring vaccines as a condition for employment is deemed discrimination and a violation of the states human rights laws.

Personally, I feel like I'm being "discriminated against" for wanting to stay alive and healthy. And it scares me because this law will encourage anti-vaxxer crazies to move to Montana.
