State police union sues over governor's vaccination mandate
Fox News
The union that represents about 1,800 Massachusetts State Police troopers went before a judge Wednesday asking for a delay in the implementation of Gov. Charlie Baker's state employee coronavirus vaccine mandate.
An attorney for the State Police Association of Massachusetts told the judge that Baker's Oct. 17 deadline is arbitrary and made bargaining impossible. He argued that because of the timing required between shots, unvaccinated troopers would need to schedule their first of the two-dose Pfizer vaccine by Sunday in order to comply.
He said about 20% of troopers are not yet vaccinated.
