(St. Paul, MN) — Minnesota House Republicans are arguing against the Mayo Clinic’s employee COVID-19 vaccine mandate. A letter signed by more than three dozen Republicans in the House outlines objections to the policy and says they won’t support state funding for an institution with a vaccine mandate. Democrats are calling the Republican criticism “disturbing,” saying it questions the judgment of medical professionals. A Mayo Clinic spokesperson says it is the facility’s “moral imperative” to require vaccinations.
