A group of military employees and a local union filed a lawsuit last week, challenging the legality of the federal government’s requirement that all federal workers get the COVID-19 vaccine shot.
The American Federal of Government Employees (AFGE) Local 2586, which represents civilian employees of the U.S. Department of Defense at Altus Air Force Base in Oklahoma, along with three other individuals filed the lawsuit last week in federal district court.
The lawsuit, led by attorney Rachel Bussett, claims the mandate violates the 5th and 10th Amendments of the U.S. Constitution.
“Plaintiff AFGE Local 2586 has suffered financial loss due to the Federal Employee Vaccine Mandate in that 20% to 30% of its members at Altus AFB have left or will leave their employment as a result of the mandate,” the lawsuit stated.
