President Donald Trump is facing pressure to use his executive power to block hospitals from denying organ transplants for people not vaccinated against COVID-19 after reports emerged that Vice President JD Vance’s 12-year-old relative was reportedly denied a heart transplant over her COVID-19 vaccination status
In a letter to President Trump, Rep. Michael Rulli (R-Ohio) alongside Rep. Erin Houchin (R-Ind.) called on Trump to take action. Rep. Rulli said he was partially moved to act after hearing about Vance’s relative.
The letter, signed by Rulli, Houchin and five other House Republicans, cited Trump’s executive orders ending COVID-19 vaccine mandates in schools and reinstating military service members who were discharged for not getting the vaccine.

“Over the past week, it has come to light that multiple desperate Americans have been denied life-saving organ transplants due to their COVID-19 vaccination status,” the letter said. “This outrageous denial of care has affected some of our most vulnerable citizens – including a child from Indiana and a veteran from Ohio.”
Houchin told Fox News, “Patients – especially children – should never be turned away from care due to government-imposed mandates. This effort urges President Trump to take action to ensure no hospital or transplant center can discriminate against patients based on their decision to decline the COVID-19 vaccine.”
“President Trump has done such a great job recently on executive orders,” Rulli told Fox News Digital in an interview. “And I am asking President Trump if he sees this, to please do an executive order… because you could save someone’s life today.”
“The timing is everything. If we don’t get this done, people’s lives could be at risk.”

The girl’s mother, Jeneen Deal, told the Daily Mail that giving her daughter the vaccine would violate the family’s religious beliefs.
Vance said in comments to the Daily Mail that he would try to help.
“I guess it’s been circulating on social media, but I was made aware of a couple days ago, and we’re trying to dig in and trying to help, obviously, as much as possible,” he said.
That’s great if the President can force the hospital to perform the transplant if a qualified donor occurs, but who’s going to ensure that the donor wasn’t jabbed and that the needed organ isn’t infected with toxins and spike proteins from the proven-deadly mRNA covid vaxx? Despite experts trying to tell us from the beginnings – 2021 and onward- it has only recently been publicly admitted by the govt. health agencies that the covid mRNA vaxx can still kill years after being injected into a person. Until these mRNA spike protein-causing vaccines are outlawed and eliminated this will be a deadly threat for years.
YES!!! THIS IS OUTRIGHT BS, THAT HOSPITALS ARE MAKING THIS TYPE OF DENIAL!!!!!!!!!
I hope President Trump stops this banning of this girl. They should not have the right to do this. The vaccine or what ever it’s called does not even stop covid!
