Arizona Sues US Administration Over Mandatory Vaccination «We, the attorneys general of the 24 states, are writing to protest your attempt to make vaccinations mandatory for individuals … Your plan is disastrous and counterproductive. Politically, this decree is unlikely will win hearts and minds — it will simply lead to more skepticism. And at least some Americans will just leave the labor market instead of submitting, «- says the lawyer's appeal to Biden, quoted by the Hill newspaper. mostly republican states — Arizona, Florida, Oklahoma, Texas and others, argue that Biden's decision is «illegal.» They attribute this to the President invoking a rarely used provision of law that has been challenged several times in court. “We urge you to rethink the illegal and malicious plan and let the people make their own decisions. Unless your administration changes course, the undersigned state attorneys general will seek all available legal options to hold you accountable and uphold the rule of law, «they wrote in a letter. In a televised address to the nation, Biden previously presented a strategy to further combat the coronavirus pandemic. The list of initiatives includes a decree requiring all federal employees and employees of companies that are contractors of the federal government to be vaccinated.
