President Biden’s plan to require about 100 million employees to be vaccinated against COVID-19 faces a major challenge in the Supreme Court today.
President Biden’s plan to require about 100 million employees to be vaccinated against COVID-19 faces a major challenge in the Supreme Court on Friday.
They asked the justices to issue an order that blocks Biden’s rules from taking effect. But before doing so, the court said it would hear arguments from both sides in a pair of related cases. The Republican lawyers say the virus is not a distinctly “occupational” danger. OSHA “may only regulate work-related dangers,” and the virus spreads everywhere, argued Ohio Atty. Gen. Dave Yostalong with the other 26 Republican states. Lawyers for businesses also said companies would lose vital workers if a vaccine mandate were put into effect.
That set the stage for the high court to take up the issue on a fast-track basis. The lead case is called National Federation of Independent Business vs. Department of Labor.
