A D.C. Superior Court judge ruled Thursday that the COVID-19 vaccine mandate imposed on city employees is unlawful.
An order that was handed down by Judge Maurice A. Ross was a response to a lawsuit filed by the D.C. Police Union and other groups that opposed Mayor Muriel Bowser’s mandate. Bowser in August of last year ordered city government employees to provide proof of vaccination although some workers could seek a medical or religious exemption to the shot.
