Employees at the Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis have until the end of August to get vaccinated against COVID-19 if they want to keep their job, Minneapolis Fed president Neel Kashkari announced Wednesday.
There will be exceptions for workers with medical conditions or religious beliefs barring the shot, he noted.
But otherwise, this is the new normal — at least at the Minneapolis Fed. “Future hires will be subject to this policy,” Kashkari wrote.
There’s something lost with fully remote work, he said. “Simply put, while we will enjoy more flexibility in where we work going forward, we are not going to be a fully remote institution.”

Couldn’t agree more.
I detest “new normal”.
Having worked for both the Feds and the State, nobody should be working for the Feds or the State, LOL!
“Well waddaya know, Boss! I was LOOKING for a job before I found this one! See ya!”
A close second is "systemic racism". Puke.
And another one I hate is "intersectionality".
I'd better stop now because I could go on and on and on with this cultural marxism bullish*t.
While the Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis is not a governmental agency, it exercises the same powers of regulation and supervision that the FDIC and OCC, which are governmental agencies, exercise. Because the Federal Reserve Banks are not truly private entities as, say, Bank of America or Chase are, there may be more protections for their employees from mandatory vaccines.

Employees should be able to sue the pushers! Come on lawyers!!!!
For some reason he word EXTORSION comes to mind. Perhaps there may be others who feel the same way?
Fluid and transgender are so repulsive to me.
People of color mostly affected. See that for every excuse in the book.
They should be sued into oblivion.
I’d claim a medical exemption then. Since I had Covid in March 2020, I’m immune, or so say the medical experts. Good grief, the world has gone nuts!
A couple of phrases I detest are “cis normative” and “existential threat.”
I-35 sux by the time it hits Austin but that’s Austin.
But...but...but, it’s voluntary!
I’m sure FRs resident vaxers will excuse this move!
Of all phrases I despise, “the new normal” has a special circle of HELL reserved for it.
Right next to “teachable moment”

...or “lets have a conversation”
They will stay away from this thread. They are picky on which ones the post to
Kneel before Neel
“Reach Out” gag
