The Supreme Court struck down Joe Biden’s vaccine mandate for businesses with 100 or more employees. The major ruling came down Thursday, alongside a separate decision from the justices to uphold the mandate for health care workers at federally funded facilities.

The OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Administration) mandate for large businesses partially took effect Monday and has faced legal challenges since Biden’s announcement several months ago. On Thursday, the Supreme Court decided that mandate is unconstitutional and blocked it on a federal level.

As expected, in a split ruling, the Supreme Court upheld the HHS  (Health and Human Services) mandate for health care workers.
