Today, the U.S. Supreme Court blocked the Biden administration’s vaccine mandate on companies with more than 100 employees.
First Liberty represents three national religious employers—Daystar Television Network, Answers in Genesis and the American Family Association—who are challenging the mandate.
This mandate is a dangerous and illegal expansion of government power. Additionally, it threatens the freedoms of millions of religious organizations and people of faith in the workplace.
Today’s ruling by the Court is a very positive win both for stopping a massive government power-grab and for religious liberty.
It protects private employers—including religious organizations—from unconstitutional government overreach. It stops the Biden administration from federalizing the nation’s workforce and forcing businesses to violate the conscience rights of their employees.
We’re pleased the Supreme Court is preventing this unconstitutional mandate from going into effect. As we continue in the case, we’re hopeful the Court will strike it down altogether, rather than giving government a new, expansive power over all Americans, including religious organizations and their employees.
Whether it’s the mandate on employers or on military service members, the Biden administration has shown a particular disdain for the Constitution and the sincerely held religious beliefs of millions of Americans, who have different beliefs.
First Liberty will continue fighting on behalf of our clients and people of all faiths to protect them from these illegal and blatant violations of their rights.
Will you chip in and give to First Liberty today? This is a historic win, but this case is not over. With your support, our attorneys can keep fighting—and winning—these crucial legal battles.
