The Supreme Court on Thursday blocked the Biden administration’s rule to have large employers either vaccinate their employees against COVID-19 or regularly test them and wear masks while on the job.
According to the Associated Press, the court’s conservative majority argued the Biden administration overstepped its authority by having the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) enforce the vaccinate-or-test rule through an emergency temporary standard (ETS). The rule would apply to employers with 100 or more employees.
