Roofing contractors preparing their businesses for the Biden administration's new vaccine mandate were given a reprieve by the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals.
The Appeals Court granted an emergency stay on the new mandate that businesses with 100 or more employees must vaccinate or regularly test workers. Louisiana Attorney General Jeff Landry filed a lawsuit challenging the legality of the new Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) rule mere hours after the administration published its Emergency Temporary Standard (ETS) to enforce the mandate.
