Florida Vaccine Passport Fines Kick In Today

Fines linked to Florida's ban on vaccine passports go into effect today. Businesses and local governments that require customers or members to show proof of a COVID-19 vaccination can now be fined five-thousand bucks. Those fined have the chance to appeal but if the fine is finalized, they'll have to pay within 30 days. Republican Governor Ron DeSantis signed a law earlier in the year blocking "vaccine passports. Lieutenant Governor Jeanette Nunez says there's concern about local governments and businesses that are finding ways to circumvent the ban.
