Jeff Zients, the vaccine czar so to speak, said there\u2019s some flexibility around these deadlines that- that they\u2019re not a cliff and the rules are being finalized soon. How soon do you need to push this off until after Christmas?<\/p>\n<p>RAIMONDO: No, I think that would be a big mistake. People want to work in a workplace where they feel safe. You see, you know, United Airlines, that was among the first to do the mandate. Their- you know, number of folks applying for jobs is through the roof. The best thing we can do to get people back to work is to make sure everybody is vaccinated.<\/p>\n<p>BRENNAN: Right\u2013<\/p>\n<p>RAIMONDO: So\u2013<\/p>\n<p>BRENNAN: But can you push that till after Christmas, you announced the rules\u2013<\/p>\n<p>RAIMONDO: It would be a mistake. It would be a mistake. You see, in the third quarter. You know, this year we\u2019re on path to have the strongest GDP growth in decades. We had a blip in the third quarter. Why? Delta- Delta variant, the quicker everyone gets vaccinated, the better our economy will be back on track, the quicker everybody gets back to work.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><em>Follow Pam Key on Twitter <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/pamkeyNEN\">@pamkeyNEN<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<figure id=\"D-ROS-B1\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo said Sunday on CBS\u2019s \u201cFace the Nation\u201d that it would be a \u201cmistake\u201d to put off federal work coronavirus vaccine mandates.
