St. Paul police union sues over city vaccine mandate

The union that represents St. Paul police officers has filed a lawsuit challenging the city's vaccine mandate.

In a statement posted to the St. Paul Police Federation Facebook page, the union said it is "not anti-vaccine, nor are we conspiracy theorists - we are reasonable and dedicated public servants who believe in personal choice."

A spokesman for St. Paul Mayor Melvin Carter said that unless a court orders otherwise, the requirement stands that all city workers be vaccinated by Dec. 31.
