Federal Appeals Court Keeps Block on Biden’s “Staggeringly Overbroad” COVID-19 Vaccine-or-Testing Rule for Large Companies
November 13th, 2021Via: USA Today:

A three-judge panel called the rule “fatally flawed” and said it “grossly exceeds OSHA’s statutory authority.” The court said that “however tragic and devastating” COVID-19 has been, it isn’t clear that the pandemic “poses the kind of grave danger” contemplated in the statute authorizing the federal agency to regulate workplace safety.
