A federal judge in Louisiana issued a nationwide preliminary injunction Tuesday
against President Biden’s COVID-19 vaccine mandate for health care workers.




Judge Terry A. Doughty in the U.S. District Court Western District of Louisiana
ruled in favor of a request from Republican Louisiana Attorney General Jeff
Landry to block an emergency regulation issued Nov. 4 by the Centers for
Medicare and Medicaid Services that required vaccines for nearly every full-time
employee, part-time employee, volunteer, and contractor working at a wide range
of healthcare facilities receiving Medicaid or Medicaid funding.

Louisiana was joined in the lawsuit by attorneys general in 13 other states.

OSHA SUSPENDS ENFORCEMENT OF COVID-19 VACCINE MANDATE FOR LARGE BUSINESSES



Doughty argued in his ruling that the Biden administration does not have the
constitutional authority to go around Congress by issuing such a mandate.




"If the executive branch is allowed to usurp the power of the legislative branch
to make laws, two of the three powers conferred by our Constitution would be in
the same hands," he wrote. "If human nature and history teach anything, it is
that civil liberties face grave risks when governments proclaim indefinite
states of emergency.

"During a pandemic such as this one, it is even more important to safeguard the
separation of powers set forth in our Constitution to avoid erosion of our
liberties," he added.



Noting that the case "will ultimately be decided by a higher court than this
one," Doughty wrote, "However, it is important to preserve the status quo in
this case. The liberty interests of the unvaccinated requires nothing less."

JUDGE BLOCKS BIDEN VACCINE MANDATE FOR HEALTH CARE WORKERS IN 10 STATES



Landry praised the ruling, saying in a statement: "I applaud Judge Doughty for
recognizing that Louisiana is likely to succeed on the merits and for delivering
yet another victory for the medical freedom of Americans. While Joe Biden
villainizes our healthcare heroes with his ‘jab or job’ edicts, I will continue
to stand up to the President's bully tactics and fight for liberty."

"While our fight is far from over, I am pleased the Court granted preliminary
relief against the President’s unconstitutional and immoral attack on not only
our healthcare workers but also the access to healthcare services for our poor
and elderly," Landry continued. "I will see this case through to the end –
fighting every step of the way to prevent the federal government from imposing
medical tyranny on our citizens and turning last year's healthcare heroes into
this year's unemployed."

Doughty's ruling echoes one from U.S. District Judge Matthew Schelp, who issued
a 32-page order on Monday blocking the Biden administration from enforcing their
vaccine mandate on health care workers in 10 states.
