"A federal judge in Texas granted Friday a nationwide preliminary injunction against President Biden’s Executive Order mandating that all federal workers consent to be vaccinated against Covid-19 or else face termination.
The order poses a substantial threat of irreparable harm to the “liberty interests of employees who must choose between violating a mandate of doubtful validity or consenting to an unwanted medical procedure that cannot be undone,” Judge Jeffrey V. Brown of the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Texas said.
There’s also a strong likelihood that the plaintiffs, who represent federal workers, will prevail in challenging the order on constitutional grounds, Brown said.

But the President’s order, which took effect without any Congressional input, is “a bridge too far,” he said."
