“No…it’s a State University. There is no federal issue here.”
How many millions in federal dollars does Indiana U get?
How many millions of federal reasons?
NO- I am not anti Trump at all. I voted for him twice and I pushed for people to vote for him. I am just not like so many of you who put bag over your head and refuse to look at the possibilities. That makes you no better than a mindless Biden supporter. Conservatives are not suppose to follow blindly. They are to suppose to be always vigilant.
I also believe that he won the election. It was stolen from him. Why would I care if I were anti-Trump.
I think it’s more the difference between bing in office and being free of the responsibilities and limitations of holding office.
It is a public university which means it is supported in some part by the taxpayers of Indiana...
And how does that make law?
a private business can mandate whatever it wishes. To be against that is to not be a conservative.
“It’s why women should NEVER be SC justices.”
Or Senators, Congressmen, in the military,....
With the general assembly not in session, the governor would have been the logical source for relief.
I suspect the students did not have the best representation.
And how does that make law?
It's state property and no one has the right to force experimental treatments to access public property. Even homeless people have a right to use the campus facilities, especially the library. Neither they, nor students, can be forced to be part of a medical experiment.
a private business can mandate whatever it wishes. To be against that is to not be a conservative...........
so what other experimental treatments can they mandate any you don’t like?
Read the decision and then figure out if there are valid grounds for her judgment.
Don’t be one of those “Wah! Wah! She doesn’t agree with me about everything!” people.
From Bloomberg: University Vaccine Mandate Stays as Justice Barrett Rebuffs Plea
U.S. Supreme Court Justice Amy Coney Barrett turned away a challenge to Indiana University’s requirement that all students be vaccinated against Covid-19 for the fall semester unless they have a religious or medical exemption.
Giving no explanation, Barrett on Thursday summarily denied a request to block the vaccine mandate from eight students who said their constitutional rights were being violated.
The case marked the first time the nation’s highest court has acted on a vaccine mandate. It comes as universities and employers across the country are moving to require Covid inoculations in an effort to stem the rapid spread of the Delta variant.
Wah Wah?? OK since you seem to have an opinion on her/her rulings, please share what rulings has she made that support conservatives?!? I have only heard of problematic ones so far.
What???
1. It takes taxpayer dollars, including Federal funds.
2. Private businesses cannot mandate whatever they wish. Sure, they can refuse to serve black customers and can fire employees for race, religion, gender, or age.
The problem is that rinos decide what the choices are to begin with. SCOTUS selections are much the same. Rino Senate confirmation limits good options. I notice you absolve yourself of having poor choices in rino-rigged elections but not Trump in rino-rigged Senate confirmation.
Businesses and universities don’t make law...
I am saying it is not like a business or club...It has public state-level support unlike businesses or clubs...
I do know that in IL, universities are subject to different laws than private businesses.
I am not a lawyer—tho I certainly am a curmudgeon ;)
Enough
Like me, you’ve been here long enough to know that ANY president (R) is perfect and god-like to too many of these folks. So many of us banged our heads against the wall pointing out the truth about the Bush family only to be told GWB was “more conservative than Reagan” over and over again by the mindless throng. Trump was and still is my choice to lead again but why do we have to pretend he’s perfect? It’s sheer idiocy.
Anything the Governor would have done would have met the same fate as Klaassen v. Trs. of Ind. Univ.If you read their Constitution, the Indiana Goobernorship is designed to be subjugated to the General Assembly, and this in turn gives Courts the prerogative to insist a priori restraint on IU must eminate from the General Assembly.
Let me put it to you another way, the Indiana Governor could have implemented the same thing IU did universally on all the students in Indiana and probably not been rejected by the Courts. This is both a problem of the Courts but also a larger problem of protecting and projecting negative liberties.
IU gets one semester of their bullshit and then the IU Smackdown Bill gets first reading the second week of January 2022 and is signed into law the third week of January 2022.
“Sets a precedence too for other entities like employers.”
Precedence was set by USSC in 1905.
F IU.
Pull your kid.
“Did she explain the Constitutional basis for the refusal?”
Appeals court cited 1905 USSC ruling.
They were members of the Federalist Society.. he thought that was enough, he was wrong. Trump’s weakest point was his personnel choices. He was a complete neophyte in politics, going on base instincts alone.
All that being said, would Hillary Clinton have been better? I refuse to reply to the Trump hater on this thread who appears to think so.
