White House Tells Businesses to ‘Move Forward’ with Vaccine Mandate
‘That was our message after the first stay issued by the Fifth Circuit, that remains our message and nothing has changed’
EXCERPT:
REPORTER: "Given this update, is the administration still urging businesses to move forward with the President's vaccine and weekly testing rule? And are you still working off of that January 4 compliance deadline?"
PSAKI: "We are. Let me be very clear, our message to businesses right now is to move forward with measures that will make their workplaces safer and protect them, their workforces from Covid-19. That was our message after the first day issued by the Fifth Circuit. That remains our message and nothing has changed. I would note that recent polling, I think that just came out yesterday, showed that 60 percent of businesses are moving forward with measures that keep their workplace safe.”
