Message from USFF Leadership
We have been receiving emails from members asking what constitutes a reasonable accommodation. Below you will find our list of what we consider to be reasonable accommodations that companies can offer their employees. Feel free to offer these accommodations to your company on their internal forms when they ask you for suggestions.
- Public statements from the CEO and senior leadership stating that no one will be placed on unpaid leave or fired as a reasonable accommodation.
- Follow up the public statement backed with contractual language that provides job security for employees.
- Continue with the fit for duty health self-assessment prior to beginning work.
- Continue to abide by the Harvard Study paid for by Airlines 4 America which states that current protocols are sufficient in preventing the contraction or spread of COVID-19 in an airplane and the relative risk of contracting COVID-19 on an airplane is 0.03%.
- Create an online learning session for all employees that highlights facts about the COVID-19 vaccines including that you can still contract, spread, be hospitalized because of and die from COVID-19 despite being fully vaccinated.
- Remove all COVID-19 specific exemption forms which are invasive and designed to intimidate and bully employees and replace with a general exemption form.
- Public recants from any management official that has said anything derogatory, discriminatory, or factually untrue about unvaccinated employees.
To be very clear, and to quote Liberty Counsel’s guidance to the US Freedom Flyers on accommodations:
“The accommodation these employees are requesting is an exemption from the COVID-19 shots. Past history is prologue in this respect, as (1) employers have been providing such accommodation ever since the first COVID-19 shot was available to the public in December 2020, (2) all phases of the airline and transportation sectors have been working through the pandemic up to the present, even during the peak of COVID-19 without the shots; (3) the Delta variant has been in the United States for months and employees continued to work through the present without the COVID-19 shots; (4) transportation employers have implemented measures to protect the health and safety of its employees and passengers by requiring PPE, with many upgrading air filtration systems, without mandating the COVID-19 shots; (5) nothing has changed except the recent mandate; and (6) therefore, months of history during COVID- 19, with the Delta variant, during which COVID-19 shots were available, combined with the health and safety measures such as PPE, social distancing, sanitization, and upgraded air filtration, are reasonable accommodations that permitted these employers and their employees to operate. The accommodation request is to continue to permit employees to work in the same manner without diminution as they have done for many months.”

Donor Report
This week we are replacing our donor report with a specific Call To Action for all of our members. To date, we see that only 17% of USFF members have donated.
Below you will see an update on the legal front but in order to ensure that legal fight is a success, we are calling on the 83% of our members who have yet to make their donation. This weekend we want to challenge you to click the DONATE link and give $25 (or more) towards the legal fight.
Help us get to 100% participation this weekend!
All of our members need your help. We all can't succeed without it.

As some of you may know, Liberty Counsel filed a class-action lawsuit last week on behalf of the military, federal employees, and those considered federal contractors. This includes those who are employees of certain airlines. You can find more information here.
In addition, Liberty Counsel announced their willingness to "come together" with US Freedom Flyers "to fight federal and state mandates which aim to strip Citizens of their right to medical freedom." You can find that here.
As far as the legal fight that USFF and Health Freedom Defense Fund with George Wentz is pursuing, we know there has been little update on that front lately. While we originally had thought that filing against the OSHA mandate would have been the best way to go, we can't wait any longer for OSHA to make their final ruling. For this reason, our lawyers are ready to file their complaint and suit as early as next week.
In the words of our legal team, "since OSHA has delayed, we must attack" now. As soon as there is movement on this front we will send out an immediate update.

What You're Saying...
Every week we see emails and survey responses coming in and telling us what YOU think. Here are some of the latest.

"I would have never imagined that we could have reached this level of insanity in the US. There are so many valid/factual arguments why vaccinations should not be mandated. The most simple and factual is that natural immunity works and to ignore that is to ignore reality. Second, with a 99% recovery rate for those under 70 years - there is no need to force vaccinations. This will continue unless we all stand up and fight!" -PH
"I'm tired of my rights being taken away. Especially the 1st and 2nd amendments. If we lose the right to say what we want to say, or share what we want to share, or lose our right to bear arms, America will be dead." -PR
"I want my daughter to know I stood for her freedoms!" -LJ
