SJR3 Summary

  • Opposes President Biden's September 9, 2021 executive orders mandating COVID-19 vaccines for federal workers and contractors, and proposed vaccine and testing requirements for health care providers and employers with 100 or more employees

  • Characterizes the vaccine mandate as an unconstitutional overreach of federal authority that violates principles of American federalism and burdens employers, particularly health care providers

  • Declares vaccination should be a personal medical choice, not a condition of employment in public or private sectors, and that religious exemptions should always be honored

  • Directs copies of the resolution to be sent to President Joe Biden, Secretary of Labor Martin J. Walsh, Acting Assistant Secretary of Labor James Frederick, Acting Director of the Office of Management and Budget Shalanda Young, and all members of Alabama's Congressional Delegation
