Trump-Appointed Judge Blocks Biden’s Vaccine Mandate For Healthcare Workers in 10 States
A Trump-appointed judge on Monday blocked Joe Biden’s vaccine mandate for healthcare workers in 10 states.
US District Judge Matthew Schelp in the Eastern District of Missouri blocked the federal government from mandating Covid jabs for healthcare workers in Missouri, Nebraska, Arkansas, Kansas, Iowa, Wyoming, Alaska, South Dakota, North Dakota and New Hampshire.
Republican Missouri Attorney General Eric Schmitt led the way and sued the Biden Regime alongside 9 other states.
Judge Schelp said the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) has no right to hand down rules because they never got approval from Congress.
“Truly, the impact of this mandate reaches far beyond COVID,” Schelp wrote. “CMS seeks to overtake an area of traditional state authority by imposing an unprecedented demand to federally dictate the private medical decisions of millions of Americans.
