Asa Hutchinson says large businesses should not comply with 'oppressive' vaccine mandate

Arkansas Gov. Asa Hutchinson (R) on Sunday said large businesses should not comply with the Biden administration's "oppressive" vaccine or testing mandate.

"[T]his mandate of [the Occupational safety and Health Administration], the federal government, needs to be struck down. And that's why we're fighting against it. And I expect the Supreme Court, hopefully, to rule against the Biden administration on that oppressive vaccine mandate," Hutchinson told co-anchor Jake Tapper on CNN's "State of the Union."

Asked if eligible businesses should comply with the vaccine-or-test mandate, which is set to take effect on Monday, Hutchinson said "no," pointing to the pending litigation in the Supreme Court.

The Supreme Court heard oral arguments on Friday about the Biden administration's COVID-19 vaccine-or-test mandate, which will apply to businesses with 100 or more employees. A group of 10 states, including Arkansas, filed a lawsuit against the vaccine and testing requirement in November, arguing that such a policy is "unconstitutional and unlawful."

Having a vaccine mandate in place is healthier and safer for everyone.
