Listen to below podcast of one caller after another saying they'll leave a job they love or be forced to be fired but will not have their medical care mandated by any bureaucrat. North Charleston was the first lowcountry municipality to mandate all staff receive the Covid-19 shot followed by Charleston, who became the first county in the state to do so. Below are contact numbers to voting members of these government officials who seem to not understand the ramifications these decisions could create. Tell them your stories, or share those which were aired here on 94.3 WSC and the Kelly Golden Show.

Mayor Tecklenburg Statement on Employee COVID-19 Vaccination Policy
Charleston, S.C.—Today, Charleston Mayor John Tecklenburg released the following statement:
“With new COVID-19 cases surging and the highly contagious delta variant now pervasive in our area, the city has implemented a new policy requiring its employees to get fully vaccinated against COVID-19. This is a critical step to protect the health and safety of those who serve our community and to ensure that we remain capable of providing essential city services.
“The CDC, DHEC and our local medical professionals have all been clear – these vaccines are safe and effective, and it’s incumbent upon us as public servants to lead by example and do everything in our power to protect our community. Put simply, widespread vaccination is the only way we can end this pandemic for good, and we’re proud to stand by other local governments who share that same goal.”
