Good News about Mandates!

November 21, 2021 by midlandtx Leave a Comment

ACTION ALERT

11-19-21

WE HAVE GOOD NEWS! 

The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has suspended the implementation and enforcement of the Biden administration’s COVID-19 vaccine mandate for private businesses! 

Previously, under an Emergency Temporary Standard (ETS), employers with 100 employees or more were given until Jan 4th to require their employees to either be vaccinated for COVID or be tested weekly and wear masks.  Businesses that didn’t comply could have faced federal fines of up to $14,000 per violation.

However, a Nov. 12th ruling by the 5th Circuit Court of Appeals barred OSHA from enforcing the ETS “pending adequate judicial review” of a motion for permanent injunction.

The ruling comes after the New Orleans-based appeals court issued a stay on the order last Saturday.  That ruling came after Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton filed a challenge to the mandate directly to the court, along with the states of Louisiana, Mississippi, Utah and South Carolina.

The 5th Circuit Court of Appeals stated that the Biden administration’s vaccine mandate “raises serious constitutional concerns,” was “fatally flawed” and “likely exceeds the federal government’s authority.”

Additionally, at least 27 U.S. states, as well as private employers, religious organizations, and other groups, have sued the Biden administration, claiming that it is exceeding its authority in issuing the mandate.

Despite the ruling, the White House is recklessly telling businesses to move forward with the mandates.  At this point in time, any business that does so is making a voluntary decision.  No law requires private businesses to mandate vaccines.

Unfortunately, OSHA’s latest action does not affect a separate directive from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services requiring certain employees of medical facilities to be vaccinated by Dec. 6th.  It also does not affect federal contractors.

Help Fight the Federal “Hundred-Employee” Vaccine Mandate

November 16, 2021 by midlandtx Leave a Comment

HELP FIGHT THE FEDERAL “HUNDRED-EMPLOYEE” VACCINE MANDATE 

Link to share: Help Fight The Federal “Hundred-Employee” Vaccine Mandate

Tell the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) that it should not be coercing people into getting vaccinated!

OSHA has issued an interim final rule, effective November 5, which requires all U.S. companies with 100 or more employees to require their employees to either be vaccinated for COVID or be tested weekly and wear masks.  Businesses that don’t comply face federal fines of up to $14,000 per violation. 

This interim final rule is already in effect, but OSHA is requesting public comments as to whether it should become permanent.  The agency is also seeking comments on whether to expand the standard to cover smaller businesses as well!

The rule has been challenged in court and temporarily suspended while the court considers the merits of the case.  But we don’t know what the outcome of the case will be, and we need to speak up now!

Vaccines are a medical decision that should be left up to the individual, not mandated or coerced.  In addition to submitting your comments to OSHA, please urge your members of Congress to sign on to a bill to block OSHA fines on employers who don’t force their employees to get the COVID-19 shot!

TAKE ACTION

1)     Submit your written public comments to OSHA via the Federal e-Rulemaking Portal here: https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2021/11/05/2021-23643/covid-19-vaccination-and-testing-emergency-temporary-standard#open-comment

Deadline: December 6, 2021

Your comment can be very short.  State clearly that you oppose making the interim rule a final rule or expanding it in any way, and add a few sentences with your reasons.

2)     Contact your U.S. Senators and Representative and encourage them to sign on to H.R. 5464/ S. 2843.  

You can find who represents you at: https://www.govtrack.us/congress/members/map

Below is a sample script for U.S. Senators and Representatives.  Please use your own words. Calls are more effective than emails, and only take a few minutes.

“Hi, my name is ____ and I am a constituent. I am calling to ask Senator (or Representative) ______ to restore people’s right to choose whether to get the high-risk COVID vaccines in order to keep working, and also protect businesses from having to choose between mandating vaccinations or being fined. 

While the OSHA rule technically doesn’t mandate vaccinations, it clearly creates significant coercive pressure on employers and employees.  There have been thousands of breakthrough cases in fully vaccinated people, and a recent study showed that they are just as likely to infect those near them as people who are not vaccinated.  So requiring weekly testing and masking of unvaccinated individuals is not based on sound science, but rather is a blatant effort to impose so much expense, discomfort, and inconvenience on people that they will agree to be vaccinated even if they don’t want to, in order to keep their jobs. 

COVID vaccines are causing numerous serious side effects, and it is unethical to require anyone to get a vaccine that may injure or kill them in order to keep their job.  To date, over 634,000 adverse reactions and over 8,200 deaths have been reported in connection with the COVID vaccines.  These vaccines have reportedly caused more injury and death than all other vaccines combined.

Vaccines are a medical decision that should be left up to the individual, not mandated or coerced.  Vaccine mandates are contrary to the concept of informed consent for medical procedures. 

I urge _______ to support H.R. 5464/ S. 2843 to allow people to continue making a living without sacrificing their right to choose what medical procedures to undergo.”

Be sure to explain why this issue is important to you. You may wish to use a couple of the talking points below.  Don’t copy all of them – just use them as ideas to help structure your own message.

TALKING POINTS for calls and emails:

1)     Personal healthcare decisions should NOT be dictated by employment requirements. 

2)     Share why this is personal to you.  Are you an employee or an employer that would be adversely affected by the vaccine mandate?  Are you worried about the side effects of COVID injections?  Are you simply against government mandates that affect your bodily autonomy?

3)     One of the most basic human rights is that of bodily autonomy, as recognized by the Nuremburg Code.  Ethical medicine requires prior, completely voluntary and fully informed consent.

4)     Vaccine package inserts warn of the risk of brain damage, life-threatening allergy, and death and no one knows in advance whom a vaccine will harm.  Each of us may respond differently as we have different medical histories, genes, epigenetics, and microbiomes.

5)     COVID-19 vaccine manufacturers and providers are shielded from liability through the Public Readiness and Emergency Preparedness Act, or PREP Act. The only option for compensating people injured by COVID-19 vaccines is the Countermeasures Injury Compensation program (CICP).  Only eight percent of all petitioners since 2010 have been awarded compensation through the CICP.  No legal or medial expert fees are covered, no pain and suffering is awarded, lost wages are capped at $50,000, and there is no judicial appeal. In other words, the victims will be severely undercompensated while the pharmaceutical companies get rich.

6)     COVID-19 vaccines carry the risk of injury and death for some so there has to be informed consent and the right to refuse the vaccine without penalty.  As of November 5th, there had already been 634,609 COVID-19 vaccine adverse events and 8,284 COVID-19 vaccine deaths in the U.S. reported to the Vaccine Adverse Events Reporting System. https://wonder.cdc.gov/vaers.html

Walkout Peaceful Protest | November 4th

November 3, 2021 by midlandtx Leave a Comment

November 3 – Call in Sick or Take a Personal Day

Children’s Health Defense (CHD) on Nov. 3 will join organizations and individuals in the kick-off of “Worldwide Walkouts” by calling in sick or taking a personal day to protest the unprecedented loss of freedom that has occurred the world over since the COVID pandemic began.

Worldwide Walkouts!

November 8-11

Advocates for Citizens’ Rights, orna Califia non-profit founded by attorney Leigh Dundas, along with Robert Kennedy Jr.’s organization Children’s Health Defense have joined other high-profile groups and individuals to promote a Nationwide Walkout & Stand for Freedom to take place November 8-11. The purpose of the voluntary work strike is to protest vaccine mandates in the workplace. This event carries the social media hashtag of #AxeTheVax.

The movement was started by regular every-day American workers reaching out to Dundas and others looking for a way to join together collectively in order to have their actions felt, and their voices heard. “This nationwide walkout has spread like wildfire, with white collar professionals joining the supply chain workers and truckers — and employees from every industry and all faiths, creeds, races and political affiliations — now pledging they will strike during the week of November 8, as a statement that jobs should never be conditioned on medical mandates and tyranny,” Dundas said.

Up until now, there have been intermittent protests across the country regarding vaccine mandates and there have been well-publicized business interruptions that may have been linked to worker “call-ins” but not reported as such. Recent flight cancellations at both Southwest and American airlines may have been contributed to by such employee uprisings. 

Dundas emphasizes the grassroots effort that started this effort, but also points to how it has been noticed by influencers across the board. “When influencers heard about this grass-roots movement, they decided it should be given a microphone, although it’s important to note that none of these individuals or groups condone illegal strikes or walkouts that are in contravention of applicable law or contract.” 

Some names recognizable to members of the current movement in the U.S. protesting authoritarian government action are Clay Clark & General Flynn, co-hosts of the Re-Awaken America Tour, and Dr. Simone Gold of America’s Frontline Doctors, along with Ann Vandersteel and Doug Billings, to name just a few.

The work boycott is being especially encouraged in the industries of goods manufacturing and supply chain, aerospace and telecom, healthcare and transportation, and government sectors. While those are specifically mentioned targets, everyone is encouraged to participate if they support the objective of standing against mandatory vaccinations (assuming they are not prohibited from striking by contract or law).

Dundas says that this is a response to what many attorneys, judges, and others believe are the unconstitutional actions of the Biden administration in imposing vaccine mandates. She makes it clear she is not standing alone. “Couple weeks ago, I started getting calls from the blue-collar guys.  You know, the folks who actually run this country.  Because Americans don’t often have cause to reflect on this simple truth, but the fact is that this country does not run on the back of people like you and me.  It runs on the backs of blue-collar workers who make products, and who move products.”

Dundas continued, “The blue-collar folks I talked to were working at large companies that were 40%, 50%, and often as high as 75% unvaccinated — and willing to hold the line. These guys are drawing a line in the sand, making a stand for freedom.  And I believe in my core that the week of November 8 will go down in the history books as the day that freedom rose up, tyrannical mandates went on the run, and history was changed for the better.”
