[Regulator]

“Can the president use congressionally delegated authority to manage the federal procurement of goods and services to impose vaccines on the employees of federal contractors and subcontractors?”

Odd that they think this is an unanticipated question. It’s precisely the question. Delegation is not supposed to be an endrun around the Constitution allowing the President and his bureaucracy to write laws at their pleasure. The Federal Register is supposed to contain regulations that implement laws, not make them.

The courts have no business trying to determine the effectiveness of the vaccines IMO. If the President has the authority to issue his order, it’s irrelevant how effective the vaccines are, even if they’re totally ineffective.

"Can the president use congressionally delegated authority to manage the federal procurement of goods and services to impose vaccines on the employees of federal contractors and subcontractors? In all likelihood, the answer to that question is no." Thus, he granted the preliminary injunction requested by Ohio's, Kentucky's, and Tennessee's attorneys general."

It's not mentioned but did this judge make it a commerce clause issue ?
and is he using CJ Roberts' Obamacare ruling on it?

CHIEF JUSTICE ROBERTS concluded in Part III–A that the individual mandate is not a valid exercise of Congress’s power under the Commerce Clause and the Necessary and Proper Clause...The individual mandate, however, does not regulate existing commercial activity. It instead compels individuals to become active in commerce bypurchasing a product, on the ground that their failure to do so affects interstate commerce. Construing the Commerce Clause to permit Congress to regulate individuals precisely because they are doing nothing would open a new and potentially vast domain to congressional authority.
