A federal judge in Texas ruled on Friday (Jan 21) that President Joe Biden could not require federal employees to be vaccinated against COVID-19 and blocked the government from disciplining employees who failed to comply. Biden issued an order requiring about 3.5 million workers to get vaccinated by Nov\u0026nb

A federal judge in Texas ruled on Friday that President Joe Biden could not require federal employees to be vaccinated against COVID-19 and blocked the government from disciplining employees who failed to comply.

US District Judge Jeffrey Brown said the question was whether Biden could"require millions of federal employees to undergo a medical procedure as a condition of their employment. That, under the current state of the law as just recently expressed by the Supreme Court, is a bridge too far." The ruling is the latest in a series of court decisions to go against government vaccine requirements.

A third major vaccine requirement aimed at employees of federal contractors was blocked by a federal judge in December.
