“A vaccine mandate for all companies with more than 100 employees was b”h ruled unconstitutional…”

Screwdriver: Tighten those screws a bit and don’t credit the Ebeshter for something that didn’t happen. The Supreme Court did NOT rule that the vaccine mandate for companies with more than 100 employees was “unconstitutional”. The Court did find that OSHA, which regulates workplace safety for the Labor Department, issued the mandate under its emergency power established by Congress rather than under a notice and comment APA rulemaking (which would have required 12-18 months) The Court found that the generic vaccination rule, as a broad public health rule, did not fall within the emergency authorities granted by Congress to regulate workplace safety and a more narrowly focused rule would have to be adopted using regular APA rulemaking process.
