Well I suppose this is one way for the communist Democrats to “defund the police”. Communist state of Washington is demanding some city workers (including the police) to either submit medical records, or get vaccinated by October 18th. If not, they will be fired. This affects some 200 or so Seattle area police, who for reasons on their own don’t want to vaccine and certainly don’t want to turn over their private medical records. This is what communists do. If 200 police quit the force, or are fired because of this vaccine mandate, that would represent 20% of the entire city’s force.
Some 200 Seattle police officers may lose their jobs due to their resistance to getting vaccinated against COVID-19 or handing over personal medical data, according to a report.
That represents about 20 percent of the department’s deployable staff and the ailing agency has already lost 300 cops following last year’s push to defund law enforcement organizations, KTTH conservative talk radio host Jason Rantz reported Monday.
Washington Gov. Jay Inslee announced a sweeping order in August requiring most state employees to get vaccinated by Oct. 18 or face termination. Seattle Mayor Jenny Durkan put out a similar mandate for city employees, including police officers, the Seattle Times reported last month.
Hours later, the Seattle Police Officers Guild said Durkan did not consult the union before ordering the mandate while noting that the police department was already mired in a “staffing crisis” that has partly contributed to an uptick in crime.
