Democrat Rep. Jerry Nadler (D-NY) has declared his unabashed support for the mandatory masking of children as young as two years old.
According to Nadler, parents who didn’t mask their unvaxxed 2-year-old kids during the Covid pandemic were committing acts of child abuse.
Nadler argues that masks were the only available protection against the Fauci Virus until vaccines were rolled out, meaning to not mask kids up would constitute a form of abuse.
During a speech on the House floor, Nadler spoke in favor of vaccine mandates.
He noted that, in the past, he had to be vaccinated before going to school.
According to Nadler, vaccinations are necessary “to prevent diseases” as well as “pandemics.”
The Democrat lawmaker, who has been in office for over three decades, said that a nurse caring for patients should be required to be vaccinated.
He made his case by falsely claimed that Covid vaccines prevent people from transmitting the disease.
Getting vaccinated “not only protects her, it protects against transmission,” he misleading claimed.
Nadler pushed the claims despite multiple studies confirming that neither vaccines nor masks prevent transmission of Covid.
He continued by adding that healthcare workers “certainly” should be required to get vaccinated.

Republican Rep. Chip Roy (R-TX) responded by shredding Nadler of the claims.
“Your 2-year-old should be forced to be masked,” Roy declared before the House.
“That is what the Ranking Member … just said.”
Roy added that Nadler was saying the federal government should be involved in requiring that parents force their 2-year-old kids to wear masks.
