WASHINGTON, Nov 6 (Reuters) - A U.S. federal appeals court issued a stay Saturday freezing the Biden administration's efforts to require workers at U.S. companies with at least 100 employees be vaccinated against COVID-19 or be tested weekly, citing "grave statutory and constitutional" issues with the rule.

The ruling from the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit comes after numerous Republican-led states filed legal challenges against the new rule, which is set to take effect on Jan 4.

That is welcome news. I hope it will be rolled back completely before it even starts.

I sure hope Joe doesn’t get mad and yell at us again. Frankly I find it very intimidating when he does

CAUTIOUS OPTIMISM, folks. Continue praying. This evil Nazi medical experiment mandate is ONLY halted in TX, MS, LA for now (5th Circuit Court of Appeals' jurisdiction).

The fact that the temporary injunction was granted means the court believes that the plaintiffs (states) will likely succeed on the merits of the case, so that may encourage others Courts of Appeal to rule the same. For example, there is a case before the 11th Circuit Court of Appeal from FL, AL, and SC (maybe others).

IANAL, just a keen observer of this kind of thing for decades, and I believe this case, and others, WILL go to SCOTUS soon.

I believe you are correct but I do not expect this court to uphold freedom.
My guess is they will duck it if they can.

If you're not kidding, I agree. Joe may be senile, but he has real power and he relishes abusing the hell out of it. He is the world's least funny joke.

And when he is losing patience.

Would eliminating this overreach expose companies ordering the shot (its not a vaccine and we should stop calling it that) to greater liability? Maybe some of these corporations will stop acting like the enforcement arm of the tyrannical Biden regime.

Good News, Grounds on which it is issued is also bad news for the Dems. Court is looking well beyond the misdirection of OSHA Bare Shelves Biden tried to hide his illegality behind

Equate the above link to Covid and it’s just a bad flu.

General government has NO such authority. It CANNOT impose vaccine mandates nor can any of its agencies. Blatantly unconstitutional, flies in the face of federalism, the sovereign rights of an individuals free choice and also violates the Nuremberg code of WWII that dictates only VOLUNTARY consent of any human subject is absolutely essential when an experimental drug, vaccine or substance might be introduced into the body.

The COVID vaccines are ALL considered experimental and are without having been test by trial on voluntary subjects for a period of at least 10 years! Vaccine development is a long, complex process, often lasting 10-15 years and involving a combination of public and private involvement.

Unless these trials have been complete, ALL vaccines that have not yet been approved for distribution under the FDA trial protocols are considered EXPERIMENTAL!

Most of the District Appeal Courts will join. All the others will try to fight it.

They’ll all have a dog in the fight, which would make it very difficult to duck.

Yeah, SCOTUS will let the appeal courts deal with it until COVID becomes negligible and the pill alternative more attractive, so the vaccine mandate will be pulled by Biden before SCOTUS actually has to rule.
