Standstill on the Hill; Vaccines, Mandates, and Workplace Rights

The House has once again delayed a planned vote to advance two key proposals that make up President Joe Biden’s economic agenda. Rep. John Yarmuth (D-KY) and Rep. Jason Smith (R-MO) discuss the path forward for an infrastructure deal and a budget resolution. Major companies – from Walt Disney to Walmart – have already mandated Covid-19 vaccines for some or all of their employees, and now that the FDA has granted the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine full approval, more businesses are poised to follow suit. John Ho, co-chair of the OSHA-workplace safety practice at Cozen O’Connor, discusses whether employers can mandate coronavirus vaccines and if they had the legal authority to do so. Plus, an NFT of a rock just sold for 400 ether, or about $1.3 million, and CNBC’s Eamon Javers swaps movie recommendations--and quotes--with Joe Kernen. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
