Hi there,

The job of a journalist is to go to where the silence is — especially when those in power seek to silence voices that question or challenge power. That is what we do at Democracy Now! day in and day out, and we're able to do it because of financial support from people like you — people who trust and depend on our independent reporting. If you believe that freedom of speech and freedom of the press are essential to the functioning of a democratic society, please donate today. Every dollar makes a difference. Thank you so much.

Democracy Now!

White House Announces Vaccine Mandate for Over 100 Million U.S. Workers by January 4

HeadlineNov 05, 2021

The White House has announced COVID-19 vaccine mandates covering more than 100 million workers. Beginning on January 4, workers at private sector companies that employ at least 100 people will have to be vaccinated against COVID or be tested weekly. Unvaccinated workers will also be required to wear face coverings on the job and may have to pay for their own tests. A separate rule will require some 17 million U.S. healthcare workers to be vaccinated by January 4 — with no testing option.
