And allows the war on health care workers to continue.
So, will companies hire back their fired workers or face wrongful termination lawsuits? I hope so! I have no similar sympathy for anyone that quit as they quit; and have no recourse except maybe to apply for new work at their former employer, losing seniority and such.
So, will these medical facilities close, reduce hours, or as the state and feds to fill in for fired staff?
OSHA needs to be abolished along with its fascist DOL agency (among several others.) The next real conservative President needs to do this.
Call up all those people we fired this week and tell them. “never mind‼️“
On the one hand, OSHA claims the power to issue a nationwide mandate on a major question but cannot trace its authority to do so to any clear congressional mandate. On the other hand, if the statutory subsection the agency cites really did endow OSHA with the power it asserts, that law would likely constitute an unconstitutional delegation of legislative authority. Under OSHA’s reading, the law would afford it almost unlimited discretion…
We do not impugn the intentions behind the agency’s mandate. Instead, we only discharge our duty to enforce the law’s demands when it comes to the question who may govern the lives of 84 million Americans. Respecting those demands may be trying in times of stress. But if this Court were to abide them only in more tranquil conditions, declarations of emergencies would never end and the liberties our Constitution’s separation of powers seeks to preserve would amount to little. ------------------------------------------------------------
The SC has long forgotten their role in government. It is not their job to solve the problems of the country - social, economic, environmental or political. Their job is to rule on the constitutionality of the actions taken by the government.
The intent of these unconstitutional actions doesn’t matter. The consequences of striking down these unconstitutional actions don’t matter. It is not their job to find a way to reimagine these unconstitutional actions in a constitutional way.

Now we wait to see if Biden has the guts to stretch the second ruling to include anyone getting medicare/Medicaid. Maybe even social security?
We might finally see a revolt. But...the majority of those people are old and may be feeble.
NO LAWYERS will Be Treated at this Facility, if you are a Lawyer or a Judicial Officer and enter our Facility, we will Call the Police and have you ARRESTED for Trespassing.
Problem Solved.
But not all of us. And some of us have a very nasty skillset.
The problem wasn’t OSHA, it was BIDEN.
The Supreme Court is despicable because of the fact that they knew within a few weeks that the OSHA vaccine mandates were unconstitutional. They just wanted to split-the-baby and let Biden force as many to take the clot-shots as he could before they slow walked their decision in.
“We do not impugn the intentions behind the agency’s mandate.”
Please.
“While waiting for the courts to come up with a definitive decision, HR departments around the country have imposed the mandate.”
Well, there has been a stay on the OSHA order, for some time now. So any HR department that implemented this did so because they wanted to, not because they were required to by any legal authority. They also bear full legal liability for any harm that derives from their decision to mandate these injections, since they were not forced to do so by any legal authority.
It won’t be just the elderly. THEIR CHILDREN WILL BE UP IN ARMS and they CAN and WILL fight this in the streets.
I say, “Go ahead and take Social Security and Medicare away from the un-jabbed seniors and see what happens.”
Make seniors destitute and penniless and then hurry and find a deep hole to hide in.
“We do not impugn the intentions behind the agency’s mandate.”
That’s alright, I’ll impugn them for you Gorsuch. I’ll impugn them all day long.
On a personal note, this would be the 4th time I would have got this shot. Two scheduled appointments early on...first our kid got sick at school, second my trucks brake line let’s go in the driveway, third the tech had an emergency and left, and now this. Ever feel someone’s been looking out for you and just reinforced it, especially since this mandate wasn’t a choice?
I hope so too but doubt anything coming out any branch of government could ever be so clear cut. Such people thrive in the fog of chaos and ambiguity.
“expand regulatory authority without clear congressional authorization”
Well folks, that’s the name of the game lately where the legislative process is just an annoying impediment to the commies to get their way. We are well on the path for 2 YEARS now where the rule of law is replaced by edicts and mandates with out question or real resistance. The public better man up real fast before it goes any farther.
The ruling stays the implementation. It doesn’t do away with it. It also says nothing about the right of an employer to mandate vaccination. Woke companies that implemented a vaccine requirement are not being compelled to reverse that requirement. That wasn’t what OSHA’s ETS was about anyway.
Be thankful SCOTUS didn’t say anything about private mandates. That would set a dangerous precedent. Government has no business compelling any entity to do anything they don’t want, even if their decision is garbage.
