The measure of the president of the United States requires that tens of millions of employees be vaccinated against COVID-19 before January 4.
A federal appeals court in the United States on Saturday suspended the obligation to vaccinate against COVID to employees of companies of more than 100 people, established by the government of Joe Biden, while examining possible “serious constitutional problems.”
The measure of the president of the United States requires that tens of millions of employees be vaccinated against COVID-19 before January 4, under pain of having to undergo very regular tests.
Announced in mid-September, it was adopted this week by the Government, and was immediately challenged in court in particular by the Republican-controlled state of Texas, opposed to any vaccination obligation to fight the coronavirus pandemic.
This is consequently a major setback for Joe Biden, who had just achieved his first major legislative victory with the adoption in Congress on Friday of his infrastructure investment plan.
In its decision, the Texas federal appeals court ruled that the plaintiffs had “provided arguments suggesting that there are serious constitutional and procedural problems” with the Government’s text.
Therefore, the measure is “suspended” pending the examination of the merits by the court.
“We will be able to challenge Biden’s unconstitutional abuse of power in court,” Conservative Texas Governor Greg Abbott commented on Twitter. (I)
