Chicago police union '100% against' vaccine mandate for officers: 'Hell, no'
Fox News
After Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot said all city employees would "absolutely" be required to be vaccinated, the leading police union vowed to take action in court against if such mandate is announced.
"This vaccine has no studies for long-term side effects or consequences. None," he continued in a similar statement to the Chicago Sun Times on Tuesday. "To mandate anybody to get that vaccine, without that data as a baseline, amongst other issues, is a ‘Hell, no’ for us." Negotiations about the specifics of a vaccine mandate are ongoing with several unions, and Lightfoot has not announced when such requirement for some 33,000 city employees would take effect.
