We think the Biden vaccine mandate is clearly unconstitutional (this is a public health and safety decision that belongs to the states, not the feds).
Kudos to Senate Republicans on a remarkable show of unity: all 50 are cosponsors of Senator Mike Braun’s Congressional Review Act resolution to overturn the OSHA order.

On the legal front, it was good news that Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals in Cincinnati, Ohio will hear the consolidated case on the OSHA vax mandates.

Finally, the Senate may soon take up the draconian vax mandate for federal contractors and subcontractors. That order has no testing alternative, and applies even to people who work 100% remotely.

If it gets a vote, we will report back to tell you how many Senate Dems vote for the mandate – which is more unpopular with every passing day.
