    I oppose this/those and any other "Mandates" by this fraudulent Administration This is a recipe for Total Chaos This Country built on Freedoms of Choice not by "Purchased Politicians". Representatives considering this are not Arizonians or Americans This has divided us even more. A unnatural Virus developed by China and Our Government to control our Society and farm us for Billions every year with a new "Virus" The CDC and Pharmaceutical Companies can't be Trusted NO on MANDATES.. for ALL

    I strongly oppose the vaccine mandate! It has been proven that the vaccine does not stop the spread of the virus. These tyrannical mandates violate the constitution and our God given rights. If the mandate is implemented, it will only weaken the already strained labor force we currently have. I have family and friends that are firefighters and policemen that will walk away if you choose to move forward with the mandate. Do what is right and eliminate these mandates!

    I oppose this unconstitutional mandate. It is a gross over reach of government to force an experimental vaccine or lose your job. As a firefighter 9 out of 10 patients I go on with covid have been vaccinated. It does not protect anyone from spreading it or receiving it. I also see many people who are vaccinated with bad side effects from it including heart problems, strokes, sever headaches, and uncontrollable tremors. It should remain as a choice for employees.

    The freedom of choice to vaccinate honors all people.

    According to current VAERS data for COVID19 vaccines (Dec’2020 – present):
    Number of Adverse Reactions - 927,740
    Number of Deaths - 19,532

    A federal government agency, the CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) uses VAERS (Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System) to track vaccine adverse reactions in the United States.

    I strongly oppose this vaccine mandate. I believe it is unconstitutional and morally wrong to force the City of Phoenix employees who have worked nonstop without the vaccine to get it now. Not to mention that the city is already short staffed and if this mandate gets approved the city would lose hundreds if not thousands of employees.

    I strongly oppose any mandate to our government employees to be required to get a vaccination. Data strongly shows that the vaccine does NOT protect you against getting COVID, nor spreading it. Requiring someone to get an injection should not be the choice of the government, but of the individual. Stop this lunacy. We won't require vaccinations at our southern border but we mandate it here? Stop reacting and start leading.

    If we force these vaccine mandates we cease to be a free, liberal society.

    The vaccines do not stop transmission of COVID 19. 4 out of 5 of the most vaccinated counties in the nation are listed by the CDC as high transmission.

    The Biden mandate is not being upheld by the courts, and everyone knows this.

    I OPPOSE ALL MANDATES imposed by the Safer Federal Workforce Task Force under EO 14042. The mandates imposed by this group are a terrible overreach of powers that ignore common sense prevention protocols like weekly testing and previous infection antibodies for those who do not wish to be vaccinated.

    Imposing vax mandates divides our country and pushes hard-working Americans to leave failing cities and states. Please have the courage to stand with us to defend our public workers...and say NO!!

    Our first responders should have a right to choose how they will go about personally protecting themselves from this disease. There is more than a one size fits all solution. How they respond to addressing this for themselves should be their personal choice. Get rid of the vaccine mandate! Though I chose to get it, I fully support those who choose otherwise for medical, religious, or personal reasons.

    I am opposed to mandatory vaccine mandates. This is not about curbing the spread of the virus. The vaccine does not prevent the spread, nor does it prevent infection. It has contributed to the mutation of the virus, and is not safe. If it was about curbing the spread, we would be vaccinating the millions of illegals at the souther boarder. This is about control, and Communism is what we fought agains during WWI & WWII.

    My sister has been a Phoenix police officer for 25 years. She has faithfully served this community to ensure justice and protection for all. This unconstitutional vaccine mandate will potentially lead to very dangerous consequences for the city of Phoenix. My sister, along with many officers and public servants will likely leave the job they love. Public trust in the government is already at an all time low. Please do not allow this mandate to pass and jeopardize our community.

    Mandating vaccines for Police and Fire will put the public at more risk. We will certainly lose some of our first responders because of this mandate. The police are demoralized as it is. Please don't treat them like children. Reminder: The vaccine does not stop transmission of C19! The federal mandates have been halted by the courts so there is not reason for Phoenix to move ahead.

    Phoenix employees are not federal contractors. This will weaken in fact cripple infrastructure for safety. Crime will be even more prevalent! The city is already short staffed?! Defend your employees stop threatening termination for these heros! I am in favor of canceling this mandate! This is being run like a dictatorship. We are adults capable of making health decisions for ourselves. The reasons people don't take vaccines are not black and white. Logic is being overlooked here.

    As a firefighter, I have served the city of Phoenix whole-heartedly, sacrificing time with family, sleep, health, and holidays in order to make sure this city is safe and taken care of amidst a pandemic and a short-staffing crisis. I feel as if all of my hard work is being taken for granted. My livelihood and my ability to provide for my family is being threatened simply because I am not comfortable receiving this vaccine. I urge you to eliminate this mandate.

    I oppose this mandate for the following reasons:
    1. The vaccine does not stop the spread of the virus. This is now known by the CDC, the WHO and our NAID.
    2. If this vaccine is proven not to stop the spread, then what is the reasoning behind a mandate? What benefit are we attempting to achieve?
    3. The vaccine is still experimental and does not have long term studies.
    4. There is no informed consent. Only the option to take it or lose your ability to feed your family.

    We’re supposed to be living in a FREE country! Trying to enforce all these mandates isn’t freedom, it’s communism!! And for what? There’s plenty of proof that the stupid things aren’t working & people are still getting sick. How about we promote preventative healthcare instead of doing everything possible to keep people sick. Oh yea, healthy people aren’t worth as much as sick people. Stop trying to take our rights away from us!

    Absolutely OPPOSE this gross attempt at complete government control and overreach. The "vaccine" doesn't even stop transmission or infection. It has been 2 years of this craziness...it must end NOW!!

    I am a COP employee that was diagnosed with breast cancer in Jul '18. I am in remission. I am fully vaccinated including my booster shot and flu shot. I wear my mask when I am in public. I still have appointments at Ironwood Cancer Research Center. When I am in the lobby, I am sitting next to a person who is getting chemotherapy and next to a person who is getting radiation treatment for cancer. Help me keep our community safe. Remember me when you make your decisions.

    I oppose the vaccine mandate. We should never be forced/coerced into receiving a medical product (with death as a possible side effect) in order to work. This is America! Not communist China! We have a right to bodily autonomy.

    The vaccine does not prevent anyone from getting the virus, nor does it stop transmission. The virus has a 99%+ survival rate. Where’s the common sense in all of this?! What is this mandate really about? NO TO VACCINE MANDATES!!
