More than half of US states are suing to stop Biden's COVID-19 vaccine
mandate

At least 26 states on Friday filed or joined lawsuits opposing President
Joe Biden's vaccine mandate.
"This mandate is unconstitutional, unlawful, and unwise," said a filing
by a coalition of 11 states.
The White House on Thursday made official its plan to require vaccines
for employees of big companies.
More than half of US states on Friday filed or joined lawsuits opposing
President Joe Biden's vaccine mandate for employees of large companies.
Twenty-six states cosigned four petitions, amounting to perhaps the most
sweeping legal challenge to pandemic-era safety requirements since Biden
took office. Three Democrat-led states are among the 26.
The lawsuits, filed in four federal appeals courts, take aim at Biden's
requirement that all companies with more than 100 employees mandate
COVID-19 vaccines for their staff, or implement weekly testing.
"This mandate is unconstitutional, unlawful, and unwise," said a lawsuit
filed by Missouri and 10 other states in the US Court of Appeals for the
Eight Circuit.
The states said in the filing that Biden's mandate "will cause injuries
and hardship to working families, inflict economic disruption and
staffing shortages on the states and private employers, and impose even
greater strains on struggling labor markets and supply chains."
Biden's mandate, which would affect about two of every three
private-sector workers, was officially rolled out on Thursday. It is set
to take effect January 4.
The lawsuits argue that the federal government doesn't have the
constitutional authority to put a vaccine mandate in place. The
Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) also lacks the
statutory authority to enforce it, they say. The issue should be left to
states to decide, they argue.
"States have been leading the fight against COVID-19 from the start of
the pandemic," said Kansas Gov. Laura Kelly, one of several Democratic
leaders to join the suits. "It is too late to impose a federal standard
now that we have already developed systems and strategies that are
tailored for our specific needs."
At least one lawsuit argues that Biden's requirements have been
"shoe-horned" into workplace safety statutes.
The White House on Friday pushed back against that characterization,
saying it wanted to be "crystal clear" that the requirement was a
workplace-safety measure, not a vaccine mandate.
"That would be, on its face, incorrect," Karine Jean-Pierre, principal
deputy press secretary, told reporters in a briefing. "As has been
explicit for months, it is a standard for a safe workplace to either
comply with weekly testing or to be vaccinated."
Missouri was joined in its Eighth Circuit petition by Arizona, Nebraska,
Montana, Arkansas, Iowa, North Dakota, South Dakota, Alaska, New
Hampshire, and Wyoming.
Kentucky filed in the Sixth Circuit with Idaho, Kansas, Ohio, Oklahoma,
Tennessee, and West Virginia.
Texas filed a petition in the Fifth Circuit, joined by Louisiana, South
Carolina, Utah, and Mississippi.
Georgia filed in the Eleventh Circuit with Florida and Alabama.
At least two other lawsuits were filed last week against the Biden
administration's vaccine requirements. Mississippi on Thursday joined a
separate lawsuit with Louisiana and Indiana. And Florida, which had
announced plans to sue in October, filed a solo complaint in US District
Court in Tampa.
"We started with fifteen days to slow the spread and now it's, 'Get
jabbed or lose your job,'" Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis said in a press
conference, adding that the OSHA requirement was "500 pages" of
government bureaucracy.

the U.S. & elsewhere is by rapidly ( http://bit.ly/RapidTestCOVID-19 )
finding out at any given moment, including even while on-line, who
among us are unwittingly contagious (i.e pre-symptomatic or
asymptomatic) in order to http://bit.ly/convince_it_forward (John
15:12) for them to call their doctor and self-quarantine per their
doctor in hopes of stopping this pandemic. Thus, we're hoping for the
best while preparing for the worse-case scenario of the Alpha lineage
mutations and others like the Gamma, Beta, Epsilon, Iota, Lambda, Mu &
Delta lineage mutations combining to form hybrids that render current
COVID vaccines/pills no longer effective.
Indeed, I am wonderfully hungry ( http://bit.ly/RapidTestCOVID-19 )
and hope you, Michael, also have a healthy appetite too.
So how are you ?
...because we mindfully choose to openly care with our heart,
