Judge blocks the Biden administration’s commitment to vaccination for the third time

For the third time, a US judge has suspended the vaccination obligation for a certain profession. This time, a federal judge from Georgia has temporarily suspended the vaccination requirement for employees of companies that do business with the government.

Judge Stan Baker said the ruling applies to all of America, or else it could lead to confusion.

This was the third consecutive victory for Republican-led states. They oppose the pandemic measures of the Biden administration. Earlier, the judge also ignored the mandatory announced vaccinations for health care employees and companies with more than a hundred employees.

Judge: Biden is going too far

A Georgian judge, appointed by former President Trump, acknowledged the “tragic toll” the coronavirus pandemic has inflicted on his country and the world in spurring his ruling.

But he added: “Even in times of crisis, the court must respect the law and ensure that all parts of the authority adhere to the rules of the constitution.”

The judge ruled that President Biden had gone too far and should have included Congress in its decision to impose vaccination obligations in the private sector.

Applause for the pandemic response policy

The attorney general, who brought the case on behalf of three states and a number of companies, said after the ruling: “The rule of law has triumphed and our freedom has been protected. When a president violates his power, he is happy to stop the law.” Shout when he abuses his power.

Mandatory vaccinations are an important part of the Biden administration’s anti-epidemic policy. As part of his pandemic exit platform, Biden is trying to persuade 80 million Americans who qualify for a vaccine but have not yet been vaccinated, through vaccination commitments, to get vaccinated.

Under the decision, the three vaccination commitments related to the private sector have been frozen for the time being. However, there are still vaccination obligations for government and military personnel.
