Both remote and on-site jobs for the Harris-Walz campaign require “up-to-date” vaccination status
The Harris-Walz campaign is mandating up-to-date COVID-19 vaccinations for employees.
Listings for on-site and remote jobs with the campaign posted to kamalaharris.com feature a requirement for all employees to be “up to date” on vaccines.
“Harris for President requires all employees to be ‘up to date’ on COVID-19 vaccination status as prescribed by the CDC as a condition of employment, unless otherwise prohibited by applicable law,” the requirement states.
“If you seek a reasonable accommodation in relation to the campaign’s COVID-19 policy, you should speak to the HR Department prior to reporting to an office location.”
According to the Centres for Disease Control, “up to date” means having received at least one age-appropriate updated COVID-19 vaccine for under 65s. Over 65s must receive at least two doses.
The vaccine mandate for federal employees and contractors ended in May 2023, when the end of the COVID public-health emergency was declared.
In recent weeks, Kamala Harris’s running-mate, Tim Walz, has faced scrutiny for his policies as governor of Minnesota during the pandemic, which included setting up a so-called “snitch line” for citizens to alert the authorities about people flouting the rules.

Walz also provided financial incentives of $200 for parents to have their children vaccinated.
