Government mandating private business enforce vaccination requirements isn’t a thing. It is not “quite common.” The federal government can’t require businesses to do this unless they have the authority to do so.
They don't have the authority to impose a nationwide mandate and they haven't. Biden has imposed a mandate on federal employees. As an employer, he can do that just as any employer in the private sector can. It's actually up to the governors to impose mandates at the state level if they so choose. Private employers can also impose mandates on their employees. It's possible that will happen in blue states, but I doubt that the proCOVID Republicans will do anything to slow COVID. They like things the way they are.
Lie.
I have been hearing about this slippery slop all my life. Reagan used it as an argument against Medicare. Meat producers made that argument 100 years ago. Car companies said it about safety mandates and mileage mandates. I haven’t slipped on that slope yet.
See post #55.
Had you Googled about this axios broke it down how he would do it.After four years of “Trump is a fascist” it seems pretty odd that people are suddenly okay with a President intentionally violating the constitution for political expediency. I’m curious to hear what legal authority over business the government has to mandate and enforce vaccinations, but only if they 100+ employees.
Democrats: States can’t enforce immigration law because it’s not their responsibility.
Also Democrats: The Federal government can force your business to become the vaccine police… because… reasons???
And of course you just assert that it is wrong without explaining why.
Most likely. Not really what osha is designed for.
Thanks to Republicans. Just to be clear.
Oh well.
OSHA was created under Nixon in 1970.
This isn’t true. Biden announced that even private employers have to mandate covid vaccinations for their employees and they will be fined $14K for each violation. The only stipulation is that it applies to organizations with more than 100 employees.
So we'll just let the plague ridden employees sniffle and cough, affecting the other unvaccinated employees. Great plan. Constant testing enables an infection to be identified as soon as possible. Remember how successful it was in the Trump White House? They found and isolated all sorts of people. Kept things from getting worse. Masks would have been better, of course, but we are talking about Trumptards here.
The US government has long been in the business of giving businesses safety regulations
Wrong, we had cumulatively more cases last year (and deaths), and the daily rate of this peak is less than the peak last year.
Oh really? OSHA's mission is to "assure safe and healthy working conditions for working men and women by setting and enforcing standards and by providing training, outreach, education and assistance."
Indeed they do and boosters will be needed.
They wouldn’t have to if employers weren’t forcing employees back into the Petri dish that is the office environment for no good reason.
