The Buckeye Institute has won its case—Phillips v. OSHA—challenging the OSHA vaccine mandate with the Biden Administration conceding that Buckeye’s clients were ultimately likely to prevail in their legal challenge. The Biden Administration is not fighting the case any further and entirely withdrew its emergency temporary standard rule. “The U.S. Supreme Court was perfectly clear that the Biden Administration’s vaccine mandate exceeds OSHA’s authority, and our clients have won their rightful victory and prevailed in this important case while the Biden Administration finally admitted defeat.”

The Buckeye Institute filed its reply brief in the Supreme Court of the United States outlining why an emergency stay is urgently needed in Buckeye’s OSHA vaccine mandate case—Phillips v. OSHA. “If the court does not act immediately to halt the vaccine mandate’s implementation, these companies will be compelled to comply with this unlawful requirement and forced to implement expensive policies and practices that will threaten their businesses, expose them to penalties for noncompliance, and cost them qualified, well-trained, good employees at a time when they are already suffering a labor shortage.”
