Exemptions

According to the 5 page letter all locals received this weekend there will be accommodations for religious exemptions.

That will save Ford all the lawsuits and loss of employees we’re starting to see elsewhere. So here’s a couple sites providing templates to help you help them.

Friends daughter filed to become an ordained minister.

 

My wife who is permanently disabled, so she's not affected has been advised by her Univ of MI primary care doc, do not get the jab.  BUT, he also added he is forbidden to issue a medical waiver, or he will be terminated.

As usual "freedom of speech" is checked at the door when employed by an organization.

Pardon the interruption- just wanted to point out that Ford is a federal government contractor and as such they are required to enforce a vaccine mandate.  The company has no choice at this time but exemptions are allowed.


The top of page 4 is interesting. It seems to imply that the federal contractor is facility based. This is the first I’m hearing of this detail from any source.

Supply a Ford product to any federal agency from any Ford facility and that facility is under government contract. Ranger, F Series Trucks, Transit and Explorer`s are purchased under federal contracts. Is a facility strictly  under the mandate ruling, if the facility is not producing only government contracted products?  Even Lockheed Martin produces for civilian agencies, would the company enforce the mandate on all production facilities and/lines of production? This will be a sticking point in general for the legal intervention, if there is any... 

 

A great recent post stated it completely and without any gray area "Nothing Makes any Sense Anymore".

Not sure how exclusionary that is for Ford. Which of our vehicles are not used by the federal government? Then what about parts facilities, services, design, etcetera?

Rangers are being supplied to numerous bases for both pool and active duty, Transits are being supplied to the same duty and being supplied to foreign government armed services under federal contract. The Army`s 2nd Intel Command has undisclosed numbers of Black F250`s rolling around Germany with the 66th MI Batt.. Explorer`s rollin all over the middle east as patrol units and response team units. 

 So is it a government blanket mandate? Like you brought up paintguy  parts to fulfill these contracted products would be in the mix also? Sub contracting to fulfill contracts is common so like every other less than thought out decree by the emperor... who knows.

Thanks akirby, I believe we are still in a pile of confusion even with it spelled out government guidelines. Ford is still working on how the IUAW will swallow the terms of employment. But I`m sure the phrase will be coined "Health & Safety" and all will shake hands in Dearborn. 

 

Time will tell the story. As with Pilots, RN`s etc. etc. maybe the resistant's may add Auto Workers to the list.

After another review by the Fifth Circuit, the temporary ban on the OSHA rule is now permanent.
The three-judge panel’s ruling permanently blocks OSHA from enforcing their COVID-19 jab mandate on employers -->nationwide.<--

if it's only the 5th circuit, how is it a nationwide ban?

Appealing a ruling by an appellate district court would require a hearing by the Supreme Court. So governing bodies in other districts (nationwide) have to ask themselves, do we really want to fight a battle that’s already lost? The chances of the ruling getting over turned by the Supreme Court are very low, that is if the Supreme Court even accepts to hear the case. Think of the appellate courts as the backstop to the Supreme Court; they are there to uphold constitution and years of precedence from case law. Hope that helps.

OSHA just officially suspended the rule in response to the court ruling.

It doesn't, because my understanding of how the federal courts system works, the ruling only holds true to that district.  It needs to go to SCOTUS to get a nationwide stay.

 

Friend of mine started researching scotus decisions and found that a very large percentage of decisions came down in favor of the govt, federal, state, and even local.  That would make this a very interesting case to see how they decide it.  the often quoted previous decision on vaccines, according to a law school professor friend was a mess, and doesn't really pertain to the current mandate.

I thought once it moved beyond the federal district court and into the circuit court it became National. I don't believe SCOTUS necessarily needs to even hear the case for the stay to be nationwide. Anyone know a good attorney who has experience dealing with the federal court system who could really explain this better?

You’re not wrong. But notice how I said that other governing bodies in other districts have to ask themselves the question of whether or not they want to fight a losing battle by implementing contrary rules. For example, if you’re a Gov in the 3rd Circuit, would you ignore a ruling from the 5th circuit knowing that the people could use that as case law in a lawsuit against you? In theory the people could take you directly to the Supreme Court. The ruling from a district’s circuit court of appeals sets so much precedence, and in this case it caused OSHA to suspend its temporary standard for vaccine mandates.
