When Southwest Airlines was forced to cancel thousands of flights earlier this month, the company insisted the problem had nothing to do with its Vaccine mandate.
On Monday, hundreds of current and former Southwest employees gathered outside the company’s Dallas headquarters to protest that very mandate.
The workers held signs reading “Terminate the mandate,” “Freedom not force” and “No jabs for jobs,” KTVT-TV reported. The group’s stated goal was to fight for medical freedom.
“All who believe in medical freedom are welcome to gather outside Southwest Airlines Headquarters,” a Facebook flyer for the event said.
“More than anything, we want to get back to the heart of Southwest hospitality, where all employees feel welcomed, cared for, and appreciated.”
In one video posted to Twitter by political commentator Drew Hernandez, protesters can be heard chanting, “Let’s Go Brandon!” outside the Southwest headquarters.
