Chicago’s vaccine mandate survives two challenges Friday as US judge and City Council refuse to pause shot requirement

Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot’s administration weathered two challenges to its vaccine mandate for city workers Friday: one in court and one in the City Council chambers.

Late Friday, a federal judge shot down an emergency request by Chicago firefighters, paramedics and other city workers to halt city and state vaccine mandates. That ruling came down hours after the City Council voted down a proposal from a group of aldermen to repeal the mandate and remove the power over such measures from the mayor.

The suit also challenges Pritzker’s statewide order requiring health care workers and certain other state employees to be fully vaccinated.

But in a written ruling read aloud in court Friday, Lee said the plaintiffs failed to show that the government orders were irrational or outrageous or violated any of the employees’ constitutional or religious rights.

3. Well, I Got Those Right!

I'm not that good at predicting court outcomes, but I got both of these right.
The plaintiffs were doing nothing more than bleating "constitution, constitution" but courts have decided in favor of public health over individual rights for decades.
And, I'm happy the less Catanzara wins. He's a thug & needs to go.
