US Supreme Court Blocks Employer Vaccine Mandate

1/13/2022

On Thursday, January 13, 2022, the U.S. Supreme Court issued a stay that halted the Biden administration’s vaccination-or-testing requirement on the nation’s largest employers, expressing doubt that there is legal authority for such a broad mandate. The court, however, ruled that a policy requiring vaccinations for most health-care workers at the facilities that receive Medicaid and Medicare funds is allowed.
