Wyoming won another legal decision in the courts this week in the fight against the battery of Biden administration mandates forcing Americans to take the COVID-19 protection injection.
A federal judge in Missouri late Monday issued a temporary hold on the mandate for federal contractors in 10 U.S. states, including Wyoming, while litigation plays out. Missouri Attorney General Eric Schmidt tweeted, “We just beat the Biden Administration in court again.”
The preliminary injunction, issued by U.S. Magistrate Judge David Noce, applies to Alaska, Arkansas, Iowa, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, New Hampshire, North Dakota, South Dakota, and Wyoming. The court filing called the mandate, quote, “unconstitutional, unlawful, and unwise.”
A nationwide preliminary injunction is already in place blocking the Biden administration’s vaccine mandate for federal contractors, after a federal court in Georgia on Dec. 7 granted the injunction in a separate seven-state lawsuit led by Georgia.
