The Court writes: ‘It is undisputed that an agency cannot act without Congressional authorization.’ That would apply to all of Biden\u2019s orders.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Texas leaders on Friday scored a massive victory against the Biden administration\u2019s mask and vaccine mandates after a judge in the US District Court – Northern District of Texas, Lubbock Division, ruled for a halt in the conditions for funding for Head Start programs, which is ostensibly designed to provide education-related services to low-income children.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Buried in the Head Start program is a requirement for school staff to be vaccinated against COVID-19 and near-universal masking for both children and adults.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Per the ruling, Texas leaders including Gov. Greg Abbott argue that the Act \u201cdoes not authorise such mandates, that irreparable injury would result from them that [the Department of Health and Human Services] failed to comply with the Administrative Procedure Act in adopting the conditions, and that the mandates violate various Constitutional doctrines.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The court agreed with these arguments, finding that there is a likelihood the mandates do not fit within the Head Start Act\u2019s authorisation and that the mandates are \u201carbitrary and capricious,\u201d so it has preliminary enjoined their enforcement across Texas.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
