OSHA announced Tuesday that it was canceling its emergency policy mandating large businesses require employees to be vaccinated or face masking and testing, after the Supreme Court put the policy on ice earlier this month.
In its notice announcing the retreat, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration said the court’s ruling dealt a death blow to the mandate, which was issued as an emergency temporary standard, or ETS.
“Notwithstanding the withdrawal of the Vaccination and Testing ETS, OSHA continues to strongly encourage the vaccination of workers against the continuing dangers posed by COVID-19 in the workplace,” the agency said.

Exactly right. They know a huge BLOW OUT is coming for them. Except COVID to be completely gone by summer and they will take credit for the success. It’s all about the mid-terms.
we never followed it in our production company so it’s not a big deal..
Agree, they will want to focus on some record of victories in the summer.
So the Russia, and COVID will be painted as a win.
I think especially the Dems will want the USA to win something with Russia, which would be great if that turns out well, but I doubt it will happen.
I have no problem with encouraging but I'm dead set against mandates. See Screenname.
Vax Mandate - bump for later...
Also,I think what’s driving this is that by the time the full case (remember, the Supreme Court ruling is only a temporary one against OSHA, not a formal binding decision) makes its way through the appeals process and back to the Supreme Court in the coming months or next year, it will be obvious that the vaccines don’t work and don’t even come close to giving the protection that OSHA says they provide.
They must have gotten the heads up they are going to lose the Supreme Court.
They would not be doing this unless they knew they are about to lose.
So withdraw go back to step 1 and try a legal way to force it.
