Lots of activity on twitter/gettr about there being NO EO's on vaxxes - that companies are doing it because Biden SAID it....but he is unable to mandate it. So Biden is counting on woke companies to force their employees to do something that he cannot.
But there is an EO for Federal Employees - signed and on the register.
it's officially on the register https://www.federalregister.gov/presidential-documents/executive-orders/joe-biden/2021
Maybe there is an EO for Federal Employees... but Southwest Airline workers are NOT Federal employees. Union Pacific employees aren't Federal employees.
Companies are trying to enforce an edict... that was NEVER given. That's why they will lose in court. The employees can challenge the individual companies... who then CAN'T point to a legal Federal mandate to back up their actions.
So judges will have a choice. Either the constitutional rights of Americans mean nothing and there is no right to privacy or liberty... or else Employers can mandate whatever rules they wish, even violating employee rights, under cover of a Federal mandate that doesn't exist. :>(
My employer is implementing their mandate according to tbis EO and none.of us are Federal Employees.
I pray you are right. In a just society with real 'Justices' instead of 'just-as-it-is', you would be absolutely correct. Unfortunately, it is far more complicated when we are at war with Marxists that have infiltrated so many areas of government.
Yes, there is an EO for Federal Employees and that is the one I have been asking about.
I know my rights as far as any other mandate.
Southwest is a Federal Contractor.
Federal contractor is NOT a Federal agency.
Neither are the employees of that contractor actually Federal employees.
Otherwise, every worker at Ford and General Motors would be a Federal employee. They aren't.
