A judge in Texas has issued a nationwide injunction barring the federal government from enforcing Pres. Joe Biden’s requirement that federal workers without qualifying medical or religious exemptions be vaccinated for COVID-19.

Israel approved a fourth dose which 500,000 people have already received, although data doesn’t show an added benefit for younger people.WASHINGTON -- A U.S. judge in Texas issued a nationwide injunction on Friday barring the federal government from enforcing President Joe Biden's requirement that federal workers without qualifying medical or religious exemptions be vaccinated for COVID-19.

Judge Jeffrey Brown, who was appointed to the District Court for the Southern District of Texas by then-President Donald Trump, ruled that opponents of Biden's vaccination mandate for federal employees were likely to succeed at trial and blocked the government from enforcing the requirement. Biden announced in September that more than 3.5 million federal workers were required to undergo vaccination, with no option to get regularly tested instead, unless they secured approved medical or religious exemptions. The requirement kicked in this past November, and White House press secretary Jen Psaki said Friday that 98% of federal workers are vaccinated.Those out of compliance with the policy were referred to counseling and could be terminated under an executive order signed by Biden.

Brown wrote that at issue was whether the president"can, with the stroke of a pen and without the input of Congress, require millions of federal employees to undergo a medical procedure as a condition of their employment." He added, “That, under the current state of the law as just recently expressed by the Supreme Court, is a bridge too far."The suit was brought by the group Feds for Medical Freedom.

Democrat Beto O’Rourke: ‘No interest’ in Texas gubernatorial campaign help from President Joe BidenAsked if he'd like Biden to come campaign for him, Beto O'Rourke ducked by saying he doesn't need anyone from outside the state to come. Good luck Beto.... ksusys I mean, he's right. This race is not about him, and it's not about Trump: it's about Abbott. Abbott wants the race to be about POTUS etc's job performance thus far won't get that wish to keep deflecting here. Beto proving his loyalty to Texans is above partisanship imo. I hope someone better gets in the race — Abbott definitely needs to be removed from office, but not sure about Beto. He doesn’t make sense either, he doesn’t want Washington help, but twice he wanted to go to Washington— he’s odd

Texas Judge Blocks Enforcement Of Federal Employee Vaccine Mandate NationwideA federal judge in Texas has blocked the Biden administration from enforcing a vaccine mandate for federal employees. That's a smart choice considering most Texans own guns. When anything new tries to force an experimental injection on another person I view that a attempted murder. Especially when mRNA technology is not meant for humans. COME ON DARWINISM!!! If the employees work for the federal government, TX has no business meddling. I hate this state for keeping Covid going with these BS lawsuits. Thank God my family and I are vaxxed bc my dgt, 2 granddaughters, and I all had breakthrough cases over the past week.
