A business group representing wholesalers told President Joe Biden that jobs will be lost if he follows through with requiring companies with federal contracts to have their employees vaccinated.
CONGRESS EYES TEENAGERS DRIVING TRACTOR-TRAILERS TO SOLVE SUPPLY CHAIN BACKUPS. Hoplin said NAW and its member companies are not opposed to the COVID-19 vaccines and have encouraged employees to get inoculated.
The letter warned that if the executive order is implemented as written, then "Thousands of valued employees will be forced out of their jobs shortly before the holidays, the already compromised supply chain will be under added pressure during the busiest time of the year, and the already tight labor market will make it immeasurably more difficult to replace laid-off employees, compounding supply chain disruption."
The NAW contends that some of the workers who might quit because of the mandate are crucial to helping stymie supply chain issues and that their departure will further exacerbate the problem just as Christmas looms large.
Several NAW companies have also reported that the employees who said they will resist taking the vaccine are disproportionately minorities.
Hoplin said member companies have offered generous incentives for their employees to get vaccinated, including $1,000 checks, paid days off, gift cards, and free vacations to Las Vegas.
Dec. 8 is the deadline for employers with federal contracts to have their employees vaccinated.
It's becoming increasingly difficult to discern fact from fiction, and unfortunately the media has a strong bias. They spin stories to make conservatives look bad and will go to great lengths to avoid reporting on the good that comes from conservative policies. There are a few shining lights in the media landscape-brave conservative outlets that report the truth and offer a different perspective. We must support conservative outlets like this one and ensure that our voices are heard.
