OSHA vaccine mandate to hit large employers Jan. 4, with hefty fines for noncompliance

May be an image of 3 people and text

The Occupational Safety and Health Administration is giving employers with more than 100 employees a Jan. 4 deadline to comply with President Biden’s COVID-19 vaccine mandate and threatening thousands of dollars in fines for defiant businesses, according to a fact sheet released by the White House Thursday.

The OSHA rule is expected to be immediately challenged in court by Republican states and some business groups.

Separate from OSHA, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services is issuing a rule to require health care workers in facilities participating in Medicare and Medicaid be fully vaccinated. The CMS rule will also go into effect Jan. 4 and will cover more than 17 million workers at approximately 76,000 health care facilities nationwide.

Unlike the OSHA rule, the CMS rule affecting health care workers does not allow for a testing alternative to vaccination. The CMS rule does allow for medical and religious exemptions.

The White House also said Thursday that it would push back its federal contractor vaccine mandate deadline from Dec. 8 to Jan. 4. A coalition of Republican attorneys general have already filed suit against the federal contractor mandate.

I needed that laugh man.
You ever wonder “if we are the crazy ones” ??
It only last a minute, but it’s usually as I’m thinking, “what happened to our soldiers with Oath, ex and current, how could this possibly fly in America”

I suggest you watch the latest video by Alex--Info Wars—on vax for 5 yr olds. The UN is supposed to have been given power now to push. Hawaii/Ca. are now requiring 5 yr olds and up to take shot to enter school. But listen to response of Alex——False flags are coming !!!! By that I mean violence on mega scale not done by patriots but by the left and to blame the right/patriots. Another thought—-check out your local Sheriffs Dept and see if they are conservative/the right/etc. or lefties. Remember they are the most powerful authority in any state even to over ruling the FEDS !!!! Find out where the stand before doing anything and suggestion--if FEDS show up to your door, tell them to get the Sheriff first and then respond—-It is time to stay smart—just think of Jan 6 and how they bated innocent people and now many in prison for nothing !!

Hmm, really. the company ( packing plant )that I use to work for 40 yrs, shut down during the worst of the covid and now has reopened . but I’m hearing that on any given shift, the company has to shut down one department just to get enough workers for another production department. that is how short of workers they are, because of covid.

“And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand?… The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin’s thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt! If…if…We didn’t love freedom enough. And even more – we had no awareness of the real situation…. We purely and simply deserved everything that happened afterward.”

The sad part is a bunch of us know the real situation and everyone is afraid to do something.

The talking heads are acting like with this one win it’s all a downhill slide now. It is just getting started folks, it’s gonna get uglier before it even gets to a tolerable scale. A lot of what needs to happen is results like the truck driver that ousted the NJ senator with his $153.00 campaign funding. Take it over locally and the PTB won’t know what hit em.

Surprise! NJ just “found” 12,000 more ballots! So he might not have won. Keep voting and they will keep cheating. You cannot beat the people that count the votes!
