14042 and 14043, for contractors and federal employees, respectively. Both signed on September 9th and published on September 14th. Multiple sources initially said “lawsuits can’t start until the orders are actually signed.” When they were published, crickets.

OSHA said to expect the ETS to be effective immediately upon release — so, no period for employers to get into compliance during which lawsuits might tie up the whole mess, companies are supposed to be getting compliant NOW to be ready whatever day this garbage is published — but even though companies are expected to be compliant in advance, for some reason no legal challenges can happen in advance. The day it’s published will likely be the day the unvaccinated lose their livelihoods. And still we’re told there’s some reason that the Republicans can’t actually do anything except blow smoke.

It is interesting that the final paragraph of 14042 reads:

This order is not intended to, and does not, create any right or benefit, substantive or procedural, enforceable at law or in equity by any party against the United States, its departments, agencies, or entities, its officers, employees, or agents, or any other person.

In other words - we didn't mean to make ourselves liable for any egregious breach in the text herein!

Similar language is in 14043. Basically, they are claiming that they can enforce their desires with no culpability.

Who ends up holding the bag at the end?
