D.C. Judge Blocks Biden From Firing Unvaccinated Employees, Active-Duty Military Members

By  Amanda Prestigiacomo

A judge on Thursday issued a temporary restraining order blocking President Joe Biden from firing several unvaccinated federal employees, including active-duty military members, named in the suit challenging the president’s vaccinate mandate as unconstitutional.

The plaintiffs are seeking religious exemption from the Biden vaccine mandate for federal workers, first formally announced on September 9.

“None of the civilian employee plaintiffs will be subject to discipline while his or her request for a religious exception is pending,” Washington D.C. District Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly ordered, according to Fox News.

Judge Kollar-Kotelly’s ruling added that “active duty military plaintiffs, whose religious exception requests have been denied, will not be disciplined or separated during the pendency of their appeals.”

Politico and lawyer Jenna Ellis posted the ruling on Twitter on Thursday: “This is an amazing development from the DC District Court in the stand for OUR RIGHTS against the unconstitutional vaccine mandates,” she wrote.
