Biden Orders Vaccine Mandates for Federal Workers and Large Employers
Sep 10, 2021
President Joe Biden has laid out a six-point plan to bring the U.S.
COVID-19 epidemic under control, after a summer that saw skyrocketing
rates of infections, especially in areas with low vaccination rates.
Speaking from the White House Thursday, Biden said he was ordering
nearly all federal employees and contractors to get COVID-19
vaccinations within 75 days. He also said the Occupational Safety and
Health Administration will require large employers to have their workers
inoculated or tested weekly. Violators face fines of up to $14,000 per
infraction.
President Joe Biden: “Despite the fact that for almost five months
free vaccines have been available in 80,000 different locations, we
still have nearly 80 million Americans who have failed to get the shot.
And to make matters worse, there are elected officials actively working
to undermine the fight against COVID-19. Instead of encouraging people
to get vaccinated and mask up, they’re ordering mobile morgues for the
unvaccinated dying from COVID in their communities. This is totally
unacceptable.”
The Republican National Committee immediately promised to sue the Biden
administration over its vaccine mandates. South Carolina Republican
Governor Henry McMaster tweeted, “we will fight them to the gates of
hell to protect the liberty and livelihood of every South Carolinian.”
