As Biden Pushes Federal Vaccine Mandate Forward, Dioceses Have Varying Policies for Employees

President Joe Biden speaks about combating the coronavirus pandemic in the State Dining Room of the White House on September 9, 2021 in Washington, DC. As the Delta variant continues to spread around the United States, Biden outlined his administration’s six point plan, including a requirement that all federal workers be vaccinated against Covid-19.

Many dioceses have left the decision to be vaccinated to their employees, but Chicago, Lexington and El Paso have already moved to mandate COVID-19 vaccines.
