NYC Workers Pro-Choice, Anti-Mandate : Hold The Line!

 

 

 

 

 

 

…October 28, 2021. 11 am. NYC- outside Gracie Mansion.

On Nov 1st Mayor De Blasio will send city workers home. Fire them if not vaxxed. Creating a manufactured crisis. City workers who refuse to begin their vaccine series will be terminated …

Fire and EMS unions have fought the mandate since its inception, claiming the weekly COVID tests for unvaccinated employees were keeping everyone safe. The Mayor should have hammered out a vaccination compromise with union leaders instead of threatening to take away workers’ pay, they said. [NY Daily News]

NY Post: FDNY firehouses shuttered

The FDNY’s vaccination rate was at 72 percent at the end of Friday. the city’s deadline for workers to get at least one shot of the Covid vaccine. The mandate is expected to be enforced beginning Monday. The NYPD’s number stood at 84 percent vaccinated.

A memo sent Friday to the members of the Uniformed Fire Officers Association said it was “still in negotiations” with the Office of Labor Relations “for an extension to the deadline as well as alternate methods of implementation to maintain the safety of the public and choice for our membership.”

The memo, which was seen by The Post, advised all members, whether vaccinated or not, to report for duty when scheduled and to make notations in the fire company’s journal about why they were asked to leave. De Blasio has held firm, saying Thursday the city would not extend the deadline.

A high number of city emergency medical technicians and paramedics called in sick Saturday suffering side effects from their first COVID-19 vaccine shot, leaving the city down 40 ambulances, FDNY officials said. A majority of the ambulances out of service were in the Bronx, sources said.  [NY Daily News]

What follows are 6 short videos excerpted from an hour long protest outside Gracie Mansion.

Part 1 -excerpted from an hour long protest. First speaker, stressed accepting natural immunity. Why aren’t they recognized. “We’re not anti-vax we’re pro-choice. We give our bodies and our souls to this job” (FDNY) Also, not political. not Left/Right.  (He was annoyed with political signs.) Hold The Line!

Part 2 .”We took an oath. We will honor that oath. we will be there to work on Nov. 1st. We’re not sick. We will be there to work on Nov. 1st.We were told exemptions for first responders. We were keeping fire houses open. Yet our careers are in jeopardy. 9 days to make ‘choice’. Over 70% FDNY are vaxxed. Where’s the science!”

Part 3.This is a manufactured crisis. We will have to close down fire houses. Sanitation workers, EMTs sent home. Police. If the mayor sends them home this whole system will collapse. NEGOTIATE with your workers. Respect them. WHY are they doing this. HOLD THE LINE.”

Part 4. We were there for NYC. The mayor says he’s a friend of labor, but he has turned his back on labor/city workers.We built this country. These sky scrapers. All we ask is to be treated with dignity and respect. The mayor took an oath to protect the citizens of this city. He turned his back on us. Mr. Mayor: STAND DOWN.”

Part 5.  A woman spoke, a powerful speaker, I think her name is Jackie. “We always showed up to work. We want to work. So I ask this question: If the weekly testing was working. Why are YOU , Mayor de Blasio eliminating it! We are not anti-vax. We are pro-choice. we should be able to make a personal medical decision. Not to be forced. No mandates. THIS is how to say thank you, mr. mayor, to the essential workers who take care of the citizens of New York.”

Part 6 –  woman speaker continues. “The government of the United States cannot over ride our Constitutional rights. Our Health Care rights. Let me clear, we are not anti- vax. We are PRO choice. You are not alone. WE stand with you and your families. Hold The LINE.”

NY Post: de Blasio won’t budge . Creating a manufactured crisis. On Nov 1st  Mayor de Blasio will send city workers home. Fire them if not vaxxed. It’s an OUTRAGE!

Rachel Maniscalco is a teacher resigning from the UFT (United Federation of Teachers). She supports medical freedom: CHOICE  [teachersforchoice.org]

Michael Kane, one of many founders of the group said,“Our official position is that people should be able to make their own choices regarding masks and vaccines. We have teachers who don’t want to be vaccinated and the UFT is trying to force them.” He announced that he too is leaving the New York City Teachers Union (UFT)

“As many of you know I publicly announced I am leaving my union, the UFT … Leaving the union does not mean I am leaving my NYC DOE job … It just means I will no longer be paying union dues to the UFT while I teach in NYC.

The United States Supreme Court has ruled I cannot be compelled to pay any union dues or fees as a condition of my employment.  As of this date, I revoke any dues deduction authorization that I may have signed and no longer authorize the deduction of any union dues or fees from my paycheck.

The President of the American Federation of Teachers (AFT), Randi Weingarten was on the record that she supported forcing teachers to get the COVID vaccine to keep our jobs. Thankfully due to pressure fron TEACHERS FOR CHOICE she reversed those comments. We cannot stop fighting!”

Michael Kane introduced singer, Lisa Eden, to sing the National Anthem. She also spoke, before she sang, about entertainment union/producer mandates.

Decided to post two videos at Rumble. Thought You Tube may not like the RFK Jr assoc . They were banned by Instagram. However, it seems his Children’s Health Defense has remained on You Tube.

Dancer Heather Berman spoke passionately about what forced vaccines has meant for her and other performers – the entertainment unions and producer mandates –   [https://www.linkedin.com/in/heatherberman]

“Throughout the pandemic, American political and public-health leaders have been following Rahm Emanuel’s classic dictum for power-seeking officials: “You never want a serious crisis to go to waste.” Now they’ve adopted a corollary: You never want a crisis to end.

It does NONE of the above.
Which is why Freedom of CHOICE is so imperative.

”Union leaders representing 350,000 city workers plan to file a legal action to stop Mayor de Blasio from implementing a vaccine mandate for Department of Education employees without their input. From Harry Nespoli, chair of the Municipal Labor Committee: his group is filing an unfair labor practices complaint over the new directive.” [https://nypost.com/2021/08/23/union-leaders-taking-de-blasios-doe-vaccine-mandate-to-court/]

For some leaving the union becomes a necessary CHOICE. (Updates on leaving the union)

“Leaving the union is actually simple and is merely a letter you will write and send to the NYC DOE and the UFT. We will have a template of a letter for you with all info on where to send it. You lose absolutely none of your benefits if you leave the union. You do not lose any medical benefits nor any of your welfare fund benefits (glasses, prescription drugs, etc…) You do lose representation from your union, you cannot attend union meetings and you will likely get a stank eye from your chapter leader in your school building. I know of at least 2 chapter leaders who are ready to leave the UFT.”

SEPTEMBER 13th WILL BE WAY BIGGER SO STAY TUNED FOR THAT PROTEST ANNOUNCEMENT [https://teachersforchoice.org/2021/08/26/all-of-new-york-city-was-there/]

March on Gracie Mansion: Say No to Vaccine Passports!

August 15, 2021 (Sunday) : Rally at Gracie Mansion opposing the vaccine passports. The mandate was to begin on Monday, August 16th. Restaurants, theatres, bowling alleys and gyms will need to check vaccination cards or scan apps for proof of vaccination. No entry otherwise.  Which lead to the march!

As decreed by Mayor “de Bozo” the required passport checks are “so we can participate FULLY in society“. But, next …  the EX-Gov. Cuomo and obscene Dr. Fauci have recommended : a BOOSTER shot!

First speaker was Curtis Sliwa, Republican Candidate for Mayor of NYC. He spoke to a robust crowd outside Gracie Mansion – the citizens of NYC who demanded their God-given right to Freedom-of-Choice. Video:

The crowd was very clear: No to Vaccine Passports; No to Forced Vaccinations. My Body. My Choice. Enough!

However, an upper East Side reporter besmirched the protestors [Upper East Site] Many in the media have characterized Freedom-of-Choicers as selfish loons. See also the obscene  [NY Daily News]  And equally obscene scare-mongering seeped out of the NY Times:

This was clearly a diverse and informed crowd. See Flickr Slideshow:

March on Gracie Mansion

Many business owners stated they are not in the business of being the vaccination police. From Pasticceria Rocco, a pastry shop and diner in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn,  “It is really hard to go up against a machine, and that’s what we are up against. Honestly, I put the sign up because I was hoping that other business owners would also have the courage to speak out. But it is mainly our customers who have reached out in support.”

Wonder what Pfizer offered the FDA to approve a drug that won’t complete clinical trials till 2023 …

Karen Kingston, a former Pfizer employee and current analyst for the pharmaceutical and medical device industries, came forward with indisputable documentation that should be shared with the ENTIRE WORLD!

She claims that ”the inoculation being referred to as COVID “Vaccine” is a poisonous death sentence and nobody should subject themselves to the shots.”

Whatever the conclusion


Will this “New World” tyranny never end?
