Welcome to Wednesday, November 10th, dumplings and gnocchi...
A court has issued a temporary block on Biden’s vaccination mandate for private employers with at least 100 employees.
The Fifth Circuit panel granted a motion by a group of employers seeking to block the mandate while it hears a legal challenge against the Biden administration rule. The panel explained they granted the motion because
“the petitions give cause to believe there are grave statutory and constitutional issues with the Mandate.”
The Occupational Health and Safety Agency (OSHA) issued an emergency temporary standard (ETS) that took effect on Friday prior to the legal challenge.
Under the ETS, private employers with at least 100 workers would have to require employees to either show proof of vaccination or show a negative test once a week, and also give employees time off to get vaccinated. Violators would be fined up to $14,000 for each violation.

------------------------------------------------------------
** Article Hero Image
------------------------------------------------------------
November is dedicated to raising awareness of Native history and current events, showcasing indigenous culture and accomplishments, and celebrating the diverse communities of Native Americans in the U.S.
A number of cities and states have also re-designated Columbus Day as Native American Day or Indigenous Peoples’ Day ([link removed]) , but apart from President Joe Biden’s proclamation (making him the first president to mark Indigenous Peoples’ Day), there has yet to be a federal change.
While any month, or day, can be devoted to learning more about the indigenous people of the Americas, we've made a short compilation of educational resources, helpful organizations, and events you can read about here ([link removed]) .

** Are You Concerned About Food Waste?
------------------------------------------------------------
Around 72 billion pounds of perfectly edible food gets wasted each year in the United States. Meanwhile, 41 million Americans struggle with hunger, and 15 million households are food insecure (defined as problems getting food, a shortage of food in the house, or reduced food intake).
** What can you do to help?
------------------------------------------------------------
* Donate non-perishable food to your local Feeding America food bank ([link removed]) .
* Buy less in the first place. By reducing food waste within your own home, you can directly help solve food waste.
* Direct your local representatives to support food waste action plans in your community.
