The gov’t mandating it is unconstitutional. Private business can do what they want.
Nope, it went back to what it should always have been a state’s rights issue. If the states want to mandate they absolute can via Jacobson vs Mass it is a sole power of the state not the Fed’s the USSC got that right. As long as an individual state doesn’t have laws on the books prohibiting a business from requiring health care compliance it’s perfectly legal for them to do so. The state already requires compliance to attend public schools and University for vaccinations those have stood the test of time and legal challenges even post Jacobson vs Mass. It’s up to each individual state if they want to mandate I fully expect the Blues ones to use their power to do so in the next few weeks. The red ones will all have executive order barring businesses from mandating those will be challenged based on the same principle that got the federal mandate struck down namely only the legislature’s can pass LAWS regarding public health mandates. If the US Congress passes a public health law with a mandate in it I would expect the USSC to uphold that via the general welfare clause but the executive branch cannot do it without Congress same for the individual states the executive branch aka governors cannot do it either without their legislature’s sending them a bill.
