Los Angeles City Council members introduced a measure on Aug. 4 that seeks to require people to show proof that they’ve had a COVID-19 vaccine to enter some indoor public spaces, including theaters and restaurants, following a similar mandate announced by New York City earlier this week.
In an announcement on Twitter, City Council President Nury Martinez wrote that “many Angelenos stepped up and did their part,” and “they shouldn’t be penalized with closures by those unwilling to do theirs.”
