SCOTUS RULES: Biden mandate struck down for private employers, health care workers still required

  • The Supreme Court on Thursday blocked the Biden administration from enforcing its sweeping vaccine-or-test requirements for large private companies.
  • But the conservative-majority court allowed similar requirements to stand for medical facilities that take Medicare or Medicaid payments.
  • The OSHA mandate required that workers at businesses with 100 or more employees must get vaccinated or submit a negative Covid test weekly to enter the workplace.
