The Biden administration on Nov. 23 asked the U.S. 6th Court of Appeals to reject an order from another federal appeals court and reinstate its Occupational Safety and Health Administration vaccine mandate for private businesses with 100 or more workers.

Several lawsuits that challenge the OSHA rule, known as an emergency temporary standard, were combined into one and sent to the Cincinnati, Ohio-based 6th Circuit Court, of which 11 of 16 judges are Republican appointees.
