CHICAGO — Mayor Lori Lightfoot’s vaccine mandate for Chicago Police officers was upheld by an arbitrator who rejected the Fraternal Order of Police’s grievances over the city’s rules, she announced Wednesday at a news conference.
Lightfoot said she hopes the ruling will be a “signal for those members who are not yet vaccinated to get vaccinated.”
A visibly pleased Lightfoot made the announcement at her customary post-City Council meeting.
