Only 16 Chicago police officers are on no-pay status for defying the city's vaccine mandate, Mayor Lori Lightfoot said Tuesday
After a lengthy City Hall news conference called to mark the two-year anniversary of the shutdown triggered by the coronavirus pandemic, Lightfoot chose to see the glass as half-full, not half-empty.
Lightfoot said she has no intention of attending Wednesday's special City Council meeting called by 11 members who are among the police union's staunchest supporters. Lightfoot hinted strongly she would instruct her council allies to stay away from the special meeting, denying the organizers the quorum of 26 they need to consider a new vaccine policy, one that includes"natural immunity.""The fear mongering that, 'Oh, there's gonna be mass terminations of police officers' - not true. Never was true. Not gonna happen," she said.
