Alabama Governor Kay Ivey is urging the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) not to adopt a COVID-19 mandate that will cause “economic damage” to her state.
In a letter sent to OSHA’s Assistant Secretary of Labor Douglas Parker on Dec. 3, Ivey urged the agency not to adopt its COVID-19 Vaccination and Testing Emergency Temporary Standard (ETS), saying the policy is “misguided” and that “any final standard based on it would be a mistake.”
