A federal appeals court ruled Friday that President Joe Biden's vaccine-or-test mandate for large businesses can take effect, the Associated Press reported.
The mandate has faced more than two dozen court challenges brought by some states, businesses, and other groups. Critics argue the Occupational Safety and Health Administration , the workplace-safety agency tasked with enforcing the rule, lacks the authority to do so."The record establishes that COVID-19 has continued to spread, mutate, kill, and block the safe return of American workers to their jobs.
The mandate is key part of the Biden administration's efforts to get Americans vaccinated against COVID-19. As of Friday, about 61% of Americans were fully vaccinated, according to data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
