Rep. Roy on Tucker Carlson Tonight: ‘It’s our duty as Americans to make decisions for ourselves’

July 13, 2021

WASHINGTON—On Monday, Rep. Chip Roy (TX-21) appeared on Tucker Carlson Tonight to discuss the Democrats' extreme attempts to invade the privacy of the American people and their demands for governmental intervention into Americans' private medical decisions through intrusive vaccination outreach efforts.

Footage of the interview can be found here and some key quotes are below:

  • It is our duty as Americans, our patriotic duty, to make decisions for ourselves- not have democrats looking at our text messages, not having them shame the American people into taking a vaccine.
  • We need to stand up strong for the liberties that protected us as Americans, and stop all of this ridiculousness where the federal government is telling us that our children have to be masked, our small businesses have to be closed, while Amazon makes another hundred billion dollars.
  • This is the danger we face as Americans- the forgotten men and women out here, who are getting rolled over by the power of government, but also the oligopoly of these corporate cronies who are trying to use all of this to fatten their own wallets.
