00:00:35.700 Good Ranchers, American meat delivered.
00:00:37.820 Hey, it's Jeremy Boren, co-CEO and god king of The Daily Wire.
00:00:41.040 All right.
00:00:41.700 The Biden administration announced today that it's suspending the implementation and enforcement
00:00:45.560 of its unconstitutional vaccine mandate for private sector employers,
00:00:49.280 pending the outcome of litigation by The Daily Wire and others.
00:00:52.080 This is huge news for the 80-plus million American workers currently being asked to choose
00:00:57.000 between their livelihoods and their bodily autonomy.
00:00:59.900 It's huge news, too, here at The Daily Wire.
00:01:02.160 We were the first in the nation to file suit against the administration for this tyrannical
00:01:05.520 overreach.
00:01:06.300 And just this week, all of the cases filed around the country were consolidated into our
00:01:10.900 court, the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals.
00:01:13.000 That puts The Daily Wire at the forefront of the fight against Joe Biden's assault on our
00:01:17.080 businesses, our bodies, and our private health decisions.
00:01:19.660 But here's the thing.
00:01:21.220 This victory won't mean anything to American workers unless businesses nationwide also stop
00:01:26.040 enforcing and implementing the mandate.
00:01:28.400 If you run a business and you've spent the last few weeks preparing to go along with the
00:01:32.140 Biden plan, I get it.
00:01:33.960 The government has brought enormous pressure to bear, and the fines that they're threatening
00:01:37.400 for noncompliance are staggering.
00:01:39.420 They could break any company.
00:01:40.860 But here's the thing.
00:01:42.160 Unless you're a government contractor or subject to the health care worker VAX requirement
00:01:46.480 or some other local or state policy, none of that is actually in play at the moment.
00:01:51.060 Until the Sixth Circuit or the Supreme Court rules otherwise, the OSHA mandate is now off.
00:01:56.320 No vaccine requirement.
00:01:57.780 No testing requirement.
00:01:59.240 No masks.
00:01:59.960 No fines.
00:02:00.620 Nothing.
00:02:01.440 You don't have to do anything.
00:02:03.740 So don't.
00:02:04.920 Don't do the dirty work for the government. 0.99
00:02:06.880 Make them have to defend this unconstitutional bullshit in court before you give in. 0.98
00:02:10.700 If you believe in bodily autonomy, if you believe in the basic freedoms of your employees, 0.99
00:02:15.640 just don't do anything.
00:02:18.000 Now, I get that not every company is in a position to fight this the way that the Daily
00:02:21.260 Wire is fighting it.
00:02:22.400 That's fine.
00:02:23.020 You don't have to.
00:02:24.180 Just don't surrender while the fight is still on.
00:02:27.060 Respect the private health decisions of your employees.
00:02:29.620 Leave the whole fight the government bit to us and to the other litigants. 0.97
00:02:32.900 And if you work for a company that's forcing this nonsense on you in the name of complying
00:02:36.560 with the OSHA mandate, well, that's no longer true.
00:02:39.540 The mandate is no longer being actively implemented by the government.
00:02:43.080 So if you're being discriminated against on the basis of your vaccination status, that's
00:02:47.120 your boss, not Uncle Sam.
00:02:48.960 Don't let them hide behind the vaccine mandate.
00:02:51.240 Unless we lose in court, none of us has to comply.
00:02:54.260 And we're not going to lose. 1.00
00:02:55.580 We're going to kick the government's ass. 0.99
00:02:57.220 Because the Constitution doesn't give the government the power to force private companies 1.00
00:03:00.620 to declare that American workers are themselves a threat to workplace safety.
00:03:04.620 And even if it did, Congress certainly didn't delegate that power to the unelected bureaucrats 0.71
00:03:09.340 over at OSHA.
00:03:10.300 And even if they did, OSHA bypassed the legally required administrative procedures necessary
00:03:15.060 to implement such a policy in the name of the COVID emergency.
00:03:18.940 And there is no COVID emergency.
00:03:21.800 We have a vaccine now, which is effective at mitigating the threat of hospitalization
00:03:25.580 and death for the vaccinated.
00:03:27.200 And virtually every American who wants that vaccine already has it.
00:03:31.200 And with new therapeutics that are coming online, even the unvaccinated are at a lower
00:03:36.000 and lower risk from COVID.
00:03:37.720 So the government has absolutely no legal or constitutional right to attack our freedoms
00:03:42.260 in this way.
00:03:43.380 Joe Biden doesn't care about any of that, of course.
00:03:45.560 He's told us his reason for trying to force us all to comply with this tyrannical edict.
00:03:49.380 He's losing patience with us not doing what he wants.
00:03:53.180 Well, that might pass for an argument in some communist dictatorship hellhole.
00:03:56.460 But we still have the rule of law in this country.
00:03:58.940 And today, Biden and OSHA have had to admit just that.
00:04:02.480 Like I said, huge news.
00:04:04.080 But the fight is just getting started.
00:04:05.780 We still have to actually win the court case.
00:04:08.000 Some 600,000 people have already added their voices to our fight by signing our petition
00:04:12.240 at dailywire.com slash do not comply.
00:04:15.000 They're helping us tell the Biden administration we oppose these mandates.
00:04:18.360 And again, if you're a business owner that believes in freedom, the absolute best thing
00:04:22.500 you can do to help is just stop.
00:04:24.820 Stop implementing OSHA's illegal mandate.
00:04:27.340 Because as of today, you don't have to.
00:04:29.900 Don't make it easy for them by making your employees choose between their jobs and their
00:04:34.060 freedom.
