We got some very good news today with the SCOTUS striking down the OSHA mandate. However, there's one mandate still remaining and that's the federal contractor mandate.
There are a LOT of businesses in this country that have a federal contract or two, and this one hits me personally as my wife works for a small medical device company that, you guessed it, has a couple of small federal contracts.
This mandate remains on hold due to a ruling by the 11th Circuit Federal court. It looks like we won't get a ruling until the end of April. More info can be found here: https://www.agc.org/news/2022/01/13/federal-contractor-vaccine-mandate-update
My extremely based wife was informed two weeks ago that it is now "company policy" to be vaccinated. My wife is a remote employee that hasn't been in their office in nearly two years. She submitted her exemption request last week and we're waiting to hear if she gets it.
Frens, if any of you are in the legal profession, I'd greatly appreciate any input or advice as to what kind of legal case she might have if she's fired. Especially given today's ruling and the lack of enforcement on the federal contractor mandate.
Depends on what state you're in. In Texas you can turn them into the workforce commission. You can even qualify for unemployment. Look up your states Covid rules. There are 25 states pushing against mandates.
