Supervisor Hahn Calls on Sheriff to Implement Vaccine Mandate

Los Angeles, CA —  Los Angeles County Supervisor Janice Hahn has released the following statement regarding Sheriff Alex Villanueva’s decision not to enforce the County’s vaccination mandate in his department.

“The number one killer of law enforcement officers nationwide this past year has been COVID. Instead of implementing LA County’s vaccine mandate (like every other County department has done successfully), he is putting both his deputies and the public they come face-to-face with every day at unnecessary risk.  What we need from the Sheriff right now is leadership, for once.”
