What was the specific legislative process undertaken to push the Federal Vaccine Mandate?

[Mac-7]

Thank you for a dose of sanity.

double talk is not sanity

as he’s saying is that we got hit with a different fist of a dictatorial government

 

[MinTrut]

Not even close.

Democrats are leftists like Nazis were Jews.

There are very few Democrats left in this country.

There are tens of millions, and they are extremely dangerous.

Leftists on the other hand are quite rare.

Confusing Democrats with the left is not only false, but incredibly helpful to the Democrats.

Anyone who spreads this falsehood does the Democrat Party a great service.

Trump was able to implement taxes without the legislature.

Why?

Because the legislature gives the president broad authority to act unilaterally in certain circumstances.

 

[ColonelAngus]

There are no commies on this forum, or in the Democrat Party.

Yes, there are.

The Economic and Distributional Impact of the Trump Administration's Tariff Actions

The Trump administration has imposed $42 billion worth of new taxes on Americans by levying tariffs on thousands of products. Tariffs are taxes.

[MinTrut]

Yes, there are.

Well, you could be right in a sense about communists on the forum now that I think about it - paid shills pimping both the Democrat and Republican narratives to keep us divided.

But there are no actual socialists/leftists/communists in the Democrat Party; literally not a one.

There were more Nazi Jews than there are Democrats who are leftists.

Tin pot despot governors have been abusing "emergency" powers for over a year and a half with virtually no pushback.....Why wouldn't the senile pedo's handlers follow suit?

I don't know what is going on in other states, but here in Virginia the courts have cosigned the actions because the legislature previously granted the governor extraordinary emergency powers to be used in his discretion and only the legislature can take that power back. Since Blackface has a dem majority, the efforts to reign those powers in have not gone anywhere. Those powers were granted in anticipation of a natural disaster however, and not a pandemic, so I expect that eventually the General Assembly will modify. Anyway, there have been several lawsuits. They all have failed so far as I know.

Doesnt it seem like this should be something debated on the floor of Congress and voted on?

We do not have a constitutional republic. We are living in an oligarchy. Those who run industry are running the country.

Are you referring to requirements the US govt places on workers, in the same manner as other employers place on their employees? OR are you referring to the use of health and safety regulatory power that apply to some private employees?

 

[RodISHI]

What everyone keeps calling a "federal mandate" really isn't. The federal government as an employer, lIke many others, is requiring all their employees to be vaccinated, and OSHA has issued a new standard for workplace safety, just like th one for hardhats in certain areas. No one has issued a federal mandate for everyone to be vaccinated.

Hard hats are removable and they are not injected into the body and one isn't stuck with the results of wearing one 24/7.

 

[RodISHI]

Why do we have so many Marxist, Communist leaning peeps now and how come they haven't been ran out yet? Watch and learn.

We do not have a constitutional republic. We are living in an oligarchy. Those who run industry are running the country.

But just because the Constitution permits the government to require vaccines does not necessarily mean that the Labor Department may, as Biden says it will, issue a binding rule requiring large employers to encourage vaccination. The Labor Department may only act pursuant to an act of Congress. So unless Congress passes a new law, the department must rely on an existing statute if it wishes to regulate employers.

There is a strong argument, however, that the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970 (OSH) permits the Labor Department to act. Among other things, that law permits the secretary of labor to issue an “emergency temporary standard” regarding workplace health or safety if they determine that “employees are exposed to grave danger from exposure to substances or agents determined to be toxic or physically harmful,” and that such a standard is “necessary to protect employees from such danger.”

Are Biden’s new vaccine requirements legal?

They probably are, but that doesn’t mean that a right-wing judiciary will uphold them.

None and therefore such a mandate is illegal.

That's nice. Utterly beside the point, though.

Are you JUST waking up to this fact? That was obvious in 2008 when Republicans bailed out Wall Street, the banking industry, the insurance industry, and the auto industry, and left working Americans twisting in the winds of foreclosure, and then cut off their unemployment benefits to force them back to work at slave wages.

Your chart is stupid and wrong Tree. Communism and Fascism are at opposite ends of the political spectrum.

Stuff it, Bambi QUADRUPLED what Bush did.

 

[pknopp]

I am not saying there should be no EOs. I am asking why a law like this was not debated and passed as legislation on the floor of Congress.

Executive actions rarely are. It's also irrelevant if a president is intent on doing it anyways.

 

[Uncensored2008]

Leftists don't do this - Democrats do.

Confusing the two is like confusing Jews with Nazis.

Not all leftists are democrats. Kim Jong Il isn't. But all American Marxists, democrats, are leftists/fascists.
