Cadets ordered off Coast Guard Academy campus for refusing COVID vaccination https://www.pbs.org/newshour/health...academy-campus-for-refusing-covid-vaccination NEW LONDON, Conn. (AP) — The Coast Guard Academy is disenrolling seven cadets for failing to comply with the military’s COVID-19 vaccination mandate, after their requests for religious exemptions were denied and they were ordered to leave campus. The academy in New London, Connecticut, confirmed the disenrollments Tuesday, The Day newspaper reported. A lawyer for several of the cadets said they were told on Aug. 18 that they had to leave campus by 4 p.m. the next day. “They were escorted to the gate like they were criminals or something,” the lawyer, Michael Rose, told the newspaper. “No one helped them with travel arrangements or gave them any money,” said Rose, based in Summerville, South Carolina. “One had to get to California, one to Alaska. One’s estranged from home and living out of his truck, according to an email I received describing his situation.” Rose said two of the seven cadets had no homes to return to. The cadets’ names have not been released. Rose said academy officials were “particularly mean-spirited” and could have waited until pending lawsuits challenging the military’s COVID-19 vaccination requirement were concluded. In one of those lawsuits, Rose is representing more than 30 plaintiffs, including military personnel and service academy cadets, in litigation pending in federal court in South Carolina. Several of the cadets are from the Coast Guard Academy. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin last year made the COVID-19 vaccinations mandatory for service members, including those at the military academies, saying the vaccine is critical to maintaining military readiness and the health of the force. At least 98% of all active duty military members are either fully or partially vaccinated, according to the military branches. To date, about 5,700 service members have been discharged from the Army, Navy, Air Force and Marine Corps for refusing to get vaccinated. Earlier this year, three cadets at the U.S. Air Force Academy who refused the vaccine were not commissioned as military officers but were allowed to graduate with bachelor’s degrees, while the other military academies said all their cadets were in compliance with the vaccine mandate. A Coast Guard Academy spokesman, David Santos, said the seven cadets there were found to be in violation of the Uniform Code of Military Justice for disobeying a superior officer and failing to obey an order or regulation. The cadets requested religious exemptions that were denied by school officials, he said. Their disenrollments are in the process of being finalized, he said.
Court rehears fight over vaccine mandate for federal workers https://apnews.com/article/biden-health-covid-new-orleans-5b3621a8ed37b5a87733e8322493317b President Joe Biden has the same authority to impose a COVID-19 vaccine requirement on federal workers that private employers have for their employees, an administration lawyer told a federal appeals court Tuesday. A lawyer for opponents of the vaccine requirement, which has been blocked nationwide by a federal judge in Texas, said the requirement imposes an “unconstitutionally intolerable choice” for executive branch workers — taking a vaccine they don’t want or losing their jobs. Judges on the appeals court meanwhile questioned how far the chief executive’s authority goes, asking, theoretically, whether the president could require employees to meet certain healthy body weights or forbid them from smoking at home. It was the second time arguments on the issue were heard before the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals. A three-judge panel of the same court had upheld the Biden requirement for executive branch workers, overturning the Texas judge. But the full appeals court, currently with 16 active members, vacated the panel ruling and agreed to rehear the case. There was no indication when the court would rule. Administration lawyers argue that the employees opposing the mandate should have taken their objections not to federal court but to a federal review board, in accordance with the Civil Service Reform Act. The administration also argues that the president has the same authority, under the Constitution, as the CEO of a private corporation to require that employees be vaccinated. Arguing for the government, Charles Scarborough of the Department of Justice, said the statute provides employees with “robust” remedies if they successfully challenge the requirement through the review board, including back pay if they are dismissed for not complying. Addressing whether the president could impose body weight requirements on federal employees, Scarborough said the vaccine requirement is part of a mainstream effort to reduce the incidence of serious COVID-19 cases in the workplace, while a body weight requirement would be among “hypotheticals at the extremes.” Opponents say the policy is an encroachment on federal workers’ lives that neither the Constitution nor federal statutes authorize. And they argued that a case involving a policy that could cost some workers their jobs if they don’t agree to a medical procedure is not the type of work policy that belongs before a civil service review board. Biden issued an executive order Sept. 9 ordering vaccinations for all executive branch agency employees, with exceptions for medical and religious reasons. U.S. District Judge Jeffrey Brown, who was appointed to the District Court for the Southern District of Texas by then-President Donald Trump, issued a nationwide injunction against the requirement in January. There came a series of varying rulings at the 5th Circuit. One three-judge panel refused to immediately block the law. But, a 2-1 ruling on the merits of the case by a different panel upheld Biden’s position. Judges Carl Stewart and James Dennis, both nominated to the court by President Bill Clinton, were in the majority. Judge Rhesa Barksdale, a senior judge nominated by President George H.W. Bush, dissented, saying the relief the challengers sought does not fall under the Civil Service Reform Act cited by the administration. A majority of the full court voted to vacate that ruling and reconsider the case, resulting in Tuesday’s hearing. Twelve of 16 active judges at the 5th Circuit were nominated to the court by Republicans, including six Trump appointees. Senior judges do not routinely take part in full-court hearings but Barksdale participated in the hearing Tuesday because he had been on the earlier panel.
Nobody wants plague rats in their workforce... Unvaccinated Americans face job loss, no pay while seeking exemptions from state and local COVID mandates https://www.foxnews.com/politics/un...seeking-exemptions-state-local-covid-mandates
From the article... Despite declaring the end of the COVID-19 pandemic during a "60 Minutes" interview on Sunday, President Biden did not address the thousands of Americans who are unemployed due federal and local vaccination mandates. New York City dropped their private employer vaccine mandate, ending one of the nation’s strictest COVID-19 regulations. However, public servants are still forced to comply. ---------- The first problem is the gaffe by President Biden when he stated the Covid Pandemic is over. The fact is that it's not over because the WHO still has not declared we have now completed the transition from a Pandemic to an Endemic. The other issue is that some state's private sector has in fact removed mandates but many H&R departments have been hiring "new employees" to replace those that were fired for not being vaccinated. I'm expecting the Unions to get involved if they have not already begun to get involved to bring back those people that lost their job for not being vaccinated especially now that some jobs are accepting a recovery from a Covid infection as "vaccinated". In fact, North America now allows vaccinated individuals or those with a verified negative Covid test within the last within the past 72hrs prior to travel by airlines to enter / exit North America. Also, I suspect many businesses in the private sector are using an old dirty business tactic via firing high-wage employees that were soon eligible for a pension and then replacing them with someone younger at a much lower wage and 20 - 30 years away from a pension. The cost savings are huge for businesses that use the above dirty hiring tactic instead of bringing back those former employees with their original wages/benefits and pension still intact. Essentially, right now there are a lot of mixed messages in the private sector from one business to another business as we near traversing from a Pandemic to an Endemic that are leaving a lot of former employees and new employees very angry about employment when many jobs are under staffed (not enough employees) while the cost of living has dramatically increased in the past year (e.g. gas prices, groceries prices, cost of transportation, inflation et cetera). Another issue, there is a fast-growing number of lawsuits by vaccinated employees against their employers in the private section when an unvaccinated employee infects an immuno-compromised vaccinated employee which results in an extended loss of wages. Simply, a lot of businesses are too damn scared to hire someone that's not vaccinated. wrbtrader
Let's check out the list of losers who lost their acting jobs. Actors Who Lost Jobs For Not Being Vaccinated https://www.looper.com/1015734/actors-who-lost-jobs-for-not-being-vaccinated/
The shows could have simply instituted a testing protcol for the small number of actors who did not want to get vaxxed. After all, the goal was to stop the spread of the virus amongst the actors and staff. It was an easy fix but guess they chose firing. I did not read any articles that said these actors were unwilling to follow any other protocols that would be put in place, just the vax.
