evidence: The Court did not rule on the constitutionality of the ETS but agreed that the stay of its enforcement was warranted until the merits could be argued in the Sixth Circuit. Before the merits could be reached, however, on January 26, 2022, OSHA formally withdrew the ETS as a temporary standard. In its statement on the status of the ETS, OSHA emphasized that it was only withdrawing the ETS as a temporary standard, but keeping it in place as a proposed rule, with the agency "prioritizing its resources to focus on finalizing a permanent COVID-19 Healthcare Standard." [...] On December 7, 2021, the District Court for the Southern District of Georgia issued a nationwide stay of enforcement and implementation of the vaccine mandate for federal contractors and subcontractors established by Executive Order 14042. Separate injunctions have also been issued in Kentucky, Louisiana, Missouri, and Florida, staying enforcement of the mandate on a local scale, with Florida also explicitly prohibiting enforcement of the masking and physical distancing requirements. Appeals are pending for each of these injunctions, but with requests for expedited review denied across the board, the mandate will remain unenforceable for at least several more months.
