A federal appeals court has upheld a lower court decision blocking the Biden administration from enforcing its COVID-19 vaccine requirements on federal contractors.
A federal appeals court has ruled the Biden administration cannot enforce itsA three-judge panel on the 5th Circuit Court of Appeals voted 2-1 on Monday to uphold a lower court decision that blockedSeptember 2021 vaccine mandate for federal contractors. Louisiana, Indiana and Mississippi brought a lawsuit against the government alleging the president overreached his authority by issuing the mandate.
Louisiana is one of seven states that have filed lawsuits challenging the Biden administration's COVID-19 vaccine mandate for federal contractors. Louisiana Attorney General Jeff Landry celebrated the court's decision as a "victory for freedom.""We will continue to stand up against the Biden Administration's abuses of power that threaten us now and in the future," Landry said in a statement.
President Biden receives a COVID-19 Vaccine booster shot inside the South Court Auditorium at the White House in Washington, D.C., on Oct. 25, 2022. "To allow this mandate to remain in place would be to ratify an 'enormous and transformative expansion in' the President’s power under the Procurement Act," the 5th Circuit panel said."Under Supreme Court precedent, this Court cannot permit such a mandate to remain in place absent a clear statement by Congress that it wishes to endow the presidency with such power."
