Kelly, 160+ House members join resolution opposing Biden's employer vaccine mandate

On Wednesday, U.S. Rep. Mike Kelly (R-PA) and more than 160 members of the U.S. House of Representatives signed onto the Congressional Review Act. The resolution, introduced in the House by Rep. Fred Keller (R-PA) and in the Senate by Sen. Mike Braun (R-IN), would formally disapprove of and nullify President Joe Biden’s unconstitutional vaccine mandate imposed on America’s job creators and workers.

The Biden administration recently released details on the Occupational Safety and Health
Administration’s (OSHA) Emergency Temporary Standard (ETS) mandating vaccination requirements for employees at private businesses with more than 100 employees. The rule will affect more than 80 million Americans and impose $14,000 fines for persons who do not comply.

"Fining employers $14,000 per violation will hurt our economic recovery and potentially destroy some businesses," Kelly said. "We can't afford to have workers walk off the job and worsen our supply chain problems even more than we're already seeing. The American people, not the Biden administration, should be able to decide what is best for their own health."

“The broad support that our Congressional Review Act resolution has garnered sends a clear message to President Biden: The American people are fed up with the mandates and government control," Keller said. "Our nation faces a host of crises created by this administration, including supply chain challenges and skyrocketing costs for everyday goods and services. President Biden’s illegal vaccine mandate is crippling for Main Street job creators and workers. We will continue to do everything we can to oppose this authoritarian rule.”
