President Biden's announced vaccine mandate for private employers is being blamed for flight disruptions, and now his mandate for federal workers is posing the threat of further travel chaos with the TSA admitting that 40% of its agents remain unvaccinated six weeks before the deadline.
"We have about 60 percent of our workforce has been vaccinated, that that number needs to go quite a bit higher over the next few weeks," Transportation Security Administration Administrator David Pekoske told CNN.
The Nov. 22 deadline is only two days prior to the Wednesday before Thanksgiving, which usually is the nation's busiest travel day of the year.
"We are building contingency plans, for if we do have some staffing shortages as a result of this, but I hope to avoid that," Pekoske said.

DOH! Should read 40%. Not 0%. Quick fat fingers this a.m. More cofeve stat!
Can someone edit the headline? The missing “4” makes the headline horribly misleading.
You might ask the mods to fix the title.
I am grateful that I am retired and have no employer that can try to force me to take the not-a-vax.
I do have a part-time job now, but there is no indication that they will try to impose this on employees and if they did I would quit.
At this point, after surviving the Fauci/China chimera virus, I think the shot is more of a danger to me than the virus.
Yeah noted and asked. Please add the “4” to the header. Or, maybe if they’re not on it yet repost it.
Thanks!
And you are absolutely correct. No benefit to you but a lot of risk from the injection.
And big profits for Pharma and Fauci. Follow the money $$$$$$!
Probably higher than 40%
What will Brandon do? Hire the afghans as TSA agents?

Seems to me there will be an inflection point. Which union will be strong enough to break it.
Have the demon rats finally found a way to purge the federal drones of those who will not obey certain roders and fill tyhe ranks with those who will follow ANY orders?
Just saw where chicago mayor and police union squaring off over the vax...
Everyone must get their Traceable Markers for the New Green Deal
Come on mannnnn! What do you have to lose? You’ll get your freedom back. So says Brandon.
That’s a keeper!
I think part of the problem is the unions are not backing up their members. They are capitulating and complying when it is not even a legal mandate yet. So the employees have no one to help their side of the argument, not even their own unions will protect them.
