#56: Covid and The Law: The Fight Begins

Last week the Supreme Court blocked the OSHA vaccine mandate for large businesses. While this is a huge ruling, how exactly did this overturn and how was it decided? During this pandemic we have seen decisions being made based on doctrine. Do administrative agencies have the authority to implement medical mandates based on their interpretation of science?  To help us unpack what happened and where we might be headed with this ruling is our guest, attorney Ryan Heath. He does an amazing job explaining how OSHA had over reached their authority and power as interpreted by the Supreme Court. Remember that currently  healthcare facilities that operate under CMS ( Center for Medicare Services) still need to comply with vaccine mandates and this is a completely separate path that will play out differently. Time will tell. Ryan Heath is a licensed Arizona attorney with a background in criminal defense. He is also president and CEO of The Gavel Project, a new nonprofit organization that provides education and support to the public regarding the recent Covid-19 mandates/issues. Its mission is to fight unethical government/employer mandates and  protect the freedom of Americans, especially children.
