The Biden government is working on a vaccination pass program that will allow people to prove they have been vaccinated against the disease before entering places that were closed during the pandemic.
But the Kentucky political party branch that promotes civil liberties and non-interventionism has criticized the system.

It was tweeted, “Will the vaccination records be yellow, star-shaped, and sewn onto our clothes?” in a reference comparing the program to the yellow stars sewn on the clothing of the Jewish people to identify them during World War II.
The tweet sparked criticism from another branch of the same political party. The Bexar County Libertarian Party of Texas wrote: “While it is understandable that people would be upset about such ‘passports’, this type of messaging is extremely distasteful.
“You can argue about bad politics without minimizing the actual horror,” he added.
This is a game changing story and will be updated.
