Federal Appeals Court Issues Temporary Stay To Biden Administration's Vaccine Mandate

A federal appeals court temporarily stayed the Biden administration’s vaccine mandate for large companies over the weekend after several Republican state governments and business/advocacy groups sued to block its implementation. The Department of Labor has until 5 p.m. today to respond to the mandate opponents’ request for an injunction, at which time the appeals court will make a decision that could then be appealed to the Supreme Court. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) mandate does not go fully into effect until January 4, 2022.
