West Palm Beach, FL – Today, Congresswoman Lois Frankel (FL-21) released the following statement applauding President Biden’s announcement that federal employees and healthcare workers will be required to get vaccinated and all employers with over 100 employees will need to mandate a vaccine-or-test policy.  

“This decision by our President will save lives and finally get our nation to the other side of this pandemic,” said Rep. Frankel. “I have been speaking to local business owners in South Florida for months who want to do the right thing but have been concerned about the political repercussions—now they have the backing and the blueprint to help protect their employees, safeguard their community, strengthen our economy, and get us back to our lives.”
