On Sunday, October 24, 2021, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis said that he hopes to woo out-of-state police officers who oppose their states’ vaccine mandates with $5,000 bonuses, part of his broader attack on vaccine requirements, and positioning himself as an emerging figure in national Republican politics.“NYPD, Minneapolis, Seattle: If you’re not being treated well, we’ll treat you better here, you can fill important needs for us, and we’ll compensate you as a result,” DeSantis said Sunday. DeSantis said when announcing the special session he hoped it would take place in November, but Florida House Speaker Chris Sprowls said in a memo to lawmakers after DeSantis’ announcement the governor has not yet proposed any specific dates. More than 20 states have implemented Covid-19 vaccine mandates for government workers such as police officers, according to NPR, along with a number of major municipalities like Chicago. A number of police unions nationwide have strongly opposed the mandates—and some have filed lawsuits in an attempt to block them—with more than 4,500 police officers in Chicago refusing the mandate and Massachusetts’ police union reporting at least 150 officers have resigned. The mass opposition to the mandates has sparked fears existing staffing shortages will become even worse as a result. DeSantis’ plan to reward out-of-state officers and ban employer mandates comes after Florida has already enacted a “vaccine passport” ban that bars private businesses, educational institutions and local governments from demanding proof of Covid-19 vaccination from customers or government employees, in the video published on Oct 24, 2021, “$5000 Bonuses For Police Who Move To Florida DeSantis Wants Reward For“, below:
