Angela B. Cornell, a clinical professor at Cornell Law School who focuses on labor law, said the mandates are a positive step for businesses. “This shift will make it a lot easier for employers to push those individuals who have been on the fence or who have been opposed,” she said. Companies won’t have to worry about being sued, since it’s a government mandate and not one from the employer, she said. Per Biden’s order, the millions who work as employees of the executive branch and contractors who do business with the federal government won’t have the option to get tested instead of taking the vaccine. “The testing is sufficiently burdensome that most of them would prefer just to be vaccinated,” she said.
