U.S. Supreme Court declines to block a state order requiring health care workers in Maine to receive a Covid vaccination.
Justice Stephen Breyer denied an emergency request for an injunction. A brief court order said the challengers could try again after a federal appeals court rules on their lawsuit, or if the appeals court fails to act by Oct. 29, when the state is scheduled to begin enforcing the requirement.
In asking the Supreme Court for an emergency halt to the plan, the challengers said state officials threaten health care workers"with the immediate termination of their ability to feed their families, a loss of their license for failing to abide by the unconstitutional and unlawful mandate, and attempt to turn their religious beliefs into First Amendment orphans."

Biden administration asks U.S. Supreme Court to block Texas abortion lawWASHINGTON (Reuters) -President Joe Biden's administration on Monday asked the U.S. Supreme Court to block a Texas law that imposes a near-total ban on abortion after a lower court reinstated the Republican-backed measure.
