Federal Court Revives Lawsuit Against Los Angeles COVID-19 Vaccine Mandate
I won’t stop sharing these cases as long as they keep gaining traction. Although the courts move slow, there should be consequences for forcing an experiment on a population who by and large didn’t want it.
This particular case looks at the LA School District mandate, and hinges on the fact that vaccines were not shown to prevent the disease. A judge threw out the case in 2022, but an appeals court has reversed that ruling.
In unanimous decision, SCOTUS rejects doctors’ challenge to abortion pill
Fear not. This isn’t over. (Is the battle ever really over?) Essentially the decision says that those who brought the suit don’t have standing.
The court said that the pro-life plaintiffs “have sincere legal, moral, ideological, and policy objections to elective abortion and to FDA’s relaxed regulation of mifepristone.” But that “those kinds of objections alone do not establish a justiciable case or controversy in federal court.”
17 state AGs sue Biden administration for allowing foreign farmworkers to unionize
Kansas Attorney General Kris Kobach is leading the charge in the suit over a rule that allows temporary farm workers in the country on H-2A visas the power to unionize.
Fun fact, Federal law BANS American farm workers from doing the same.
The suit alleges that the Department of Labor cannot do this unilaterally, and must take it through the proper channels of Congress.
‘No Alternative but to Sue.’ ACLU Takes Action Against Biden’s Southern Border Order.
Speaking of Biden admin orders: The president signed an executive order on June 4th (suspiciously close to the election…) that gives him the authority to close the border when the seven-day average of daily border crossings between ports of entry exceeds 2,500.
The deputy director of the ACLU’s Immigrants’ Rights Project said, “The administration lacks unilateral authority to override Congress and bar asylum based on how one enters the country, a point the courts made crystal clear when the Trump administration unsuccessfully tried a near-identical ban.”
Remember when Biden said he couldn’t do anything by executive order, after using about 20 of them in his first month to undo all of safeguards in place? Guess his handler, oops, I mean HE, changed his mind.
Southern Baptists Vote on Women Pastors Rule, Reject Use of IVF
I find the Southern Baptist Convention fascinating. It supposedly represents the largest protestant body in the US. And yet, isn’t protestantism built on interpreting JUST the Bible, your way? Why have a governing body? Anyway, I digress for now.
Anyway, this month they approved a measure that opposes the use of in vitro fertilization (IVF), calling it “dehumanizing” and asking “the government to restrain” the practice.
While this may have no real effect on our government, it’s good to see the word getting out about the moral and physical dangers of IVF.
