” Washington, DC (May 11, 2023) – Today, the Biden-Harris Administration is officially ending the disgraceful Covid-19 vaccine mandates it never should have implemented for federal employees and federal contractors. These unlawful mandates, which were ordered without a vote of Congress, compelled millions of Americans to take an experimental vaccine without their consent—and, for those with naturally acquired immunity, against the medical advice of experts. These mandates violated unwilling recipients’ constitutional rights to bodily integrity and to refuse unwanted medical care, as well as their statutory right to informed consent. While portraying the end of the mandates as a “good news” story, federal courts had already ruled the federal employee and federal contractor vaccine mandates illegal earlier this year. Hence, this decision appears to be a cynical ploy seeking to evade the precedents set by the Administration’s mounting losses in federal court.”
“While we are happy to see the mandates lifted, it is far too late to help countless Americans who were forced to choose between jobs and jabs. The mandates coerced employers into firing hardworking employees for simply making personal health decisions, even when those employees already had natural immunity or worked remotely. Unless and until the Supreme Court holds these mandates unlawful, the government will feel free to re-impose similar mandates in the future.”
