Washington Gov. Jay Inslee sued by dozens of state employees over vaccine mandate religious provision
Fox News
Dozens of State Patrol troopers and other state employees filed a lawsuit against Gov. Jay Inslee over his vaccine mandates.
In August, Inslee ordered all state employees to receive the COVID-19 vaccine by Oct. 18 or face being fired. Washington state's vaccine mandate is one of the strictest in the country. Among the more than 90 individual plaintiffs, more than 53 are State Patrol employees, some are Department of Corrections employees, and several others work for the fire department or state ferry system.More Related News
