  COVER STORY
  Putting it on the Line
The City and the Department have put Lodge 7 members who have refused to fill out the portal reporting vaccination status through the wringer. But so many of them have refused to give in, noting how important standing up to the vaccine mandate is to protect their collective bargain- ing rights. As we pay tribute to these members, read all about what they have endured to hold the line.
