Over 400 Fired Unvaxxed NYC Workers Write New Letter to Trump, Vance and Bondi NEW YORK WORKERS FOR CHOICE sends letter calling on President Trump to intervene in New York to reinstate all unvaccinated terminated City workers with backpay Release date: February 24, 2025 For Immediate Release NY, NY – New York Workers for Choice has sent a letter to President Donald Trump, Vice President JD Vance, and United States Attorney General Pam Bondi this weekend asking for assistance from the federal government to address and resolve the ongoing situation with unvaccinated NYC workers terminated without due process during COVID measures. Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Kash Patel and Tom Homan were cc’d on the letter as well. These workers reached out to Trump in November just before he was President and received a response from the Trump’s Office in December of 2024. With all the discussions surrounding DOGE and cuts to federal jobs, the issue of workers fired over vaccine mandates is receiving renewed attention. Congressman Eli Crane received over 20 million views on X yesterday with a post that simply stated; Where was the “firing people is wrong” crowd during the era of vaccine mandates? Thousands of City workers who declined a COVID shot have not been reinstated nor afforded compensation despite this month marking two years since the City “vaccine mandate” was ended. In the letter, New York Workers for Choice calls on President Trump to intervene, as he did with US military members on January 27, 2025, to provide reinstatement and compensation commensurate with what was done for those military members who also refused the COVID vaccine and were discharged in retaliation for their beliefs. New York Workers for Choice explains that local authorities including Mayor Adams and Governor Hochul continue to ignore calls for reinstatement despite the fact that the terminations have caused critical staff shortages at all City agencies and a brain drain of over 50,000 years of combined work experience, and therefore a federal intervention is needed.

NYC Mayoral Candidate Jim Walden Vows to Rehire Fired Unvaxxed NYC Workers with Backpay and an Apology Jim Walden is a prominent private attorney who is running for Mayor of New York City. He has just become the first candidate seeking the City’s highest office to call for fired unvaccinated workers to be reinstated with backpay, and an apology. Walden reached out to leaders in the NY WORKERS FOR CHOICE movement, asked for our suggestions, and took much of our advice on the statement he prepared. His statement should serve as the standard that everyone seeking office in NYC should work from. If Curtis Sliwa announces he is running for Mayor, I hope he will have a similar statement and look forward to reading it. Walden went on retired NYPD Lieutenant John Macari’s podcast The Finest Unfiltered for a long-form discussion about his bid for mayor. The interview was over 2 hours long, and can be found kinked below in the comments. Walden spoke about many issues, including the censorship he has experienced from Elon Musk on X (formerly Twitter) allegedly over lawsuits Walden had filed surrounding Saudi Arabia. Walden is currently suing Musk and X over this. Ger more info below in the comments:
