Congresswoman Victoria Spartz, along with Rep. Fred Keller, Republican Leader of the Workforce Protections Subcommittee, have introduced a Congressional Review Act (CRA) resolution to nullify the Department of Labor’s ‘‘COVID-19 Vaccination and Testing Emergency Temporary Standard.”
This standard would mandate that companies employing over 100 people must require their employees be fully vaccinated or show a negative test at least once a week.
“This burdensome and unconstitutional federal regulation would infringe on the rights of private employers and employees,” Rep. Spartz said. “It also reaches far beyond the scope of the Administration’s authority and should be nullified by Congress.”
Read the text of the Congressional Review Act (CRA) resolution below:
“Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, That Congress disapproves the rule submitted by the Department of Labor relating to ‘COVID-19 Vaccination and Testing Emergency Temporary Standard’ and such rule shall have no force or effect.”
Cheers for Spartz and Keller. I fully support their effort to nullify this tyrannical mandate. The Biden administration is all about control and sowing fear. Covid is no match for modern medical therapeutics! Why the mandates? Why the fear?
It appears that this resolution does not have any bearing on the federal mandates for federal employees/contractors or for employers that receive Medicare or Medicaid. Is it possible that employees that fall under these mandates will see the same help from our elected officials in the near future? Keep up the good work!

Thank you Congresswoman Spartz and Representative Keller for introducing the Congressional Review Act resolution and publicly exposing another Federal Government over reach onto American citizens. Vaccinations and testing should be the choice of American employees. And employers should not be put in the position of a forced medical decision onto their employees.
