New York City’s largest police union has asked a judge to suspend Mayor Bill de Blasio’s vaccine mandate for municipal employees, arguing officers should have broader rights to claim a religious exemption.
New York, October 27 (RHC)-- New York City’s largest police union has asked a judge to suspend Mayor Bill de Blasio’s vaccine mandate for municipal employees, arguing officers should have broader rights to claim a religious exemption.
The move follows an offer by Florida Republican Governor Ron DeSantis to hire police officers who were fired from their jobs in other states for refusing to get vaccinated. DeSantis is offering the officers $5,000 bonuses to relocate to Florida.
