Seattle Police Union President Slams Seattle Leaders on Vaccine Mandate

‘This is not about vaccinated or unvaccinated, we have no interest in segregating our members’

EXCERPT:

SOLAN: “Well, it’s not going good. We are witnessing what the city normally does where they direct bargain their employees, completely skirting labor law. And they have a history of doing so. What we are trying to do -- this isn't about vaccinated or unvaccinated, we have no interest in segregating our -- our -- our members or frankly, play the game that's happening in society. This is strictly about standing up to save jobs. Because, to your point, we've lost so many people because of the political betray from our elected officials in this city. Over 350 cops gone. Because we were once the modeled reformed agency and then after Floyd these same politicians who invoked this mandate ran away from us as fast as they could for political reasons. Now it's our people that are desperate to have their voice heard.”
