    In-N-Out’s Chief Legal and Business Officer, Arnie Wensinger, has spoken out about this incident and has stated that they “refuse to become the vaccination police for any government.” The company argues that it is not fair for the government to ask private businesses to enforce the vaccine mandate, and how it is a form of government overreach.
