Ten Republican state attorneys general have sued to stop President Joe Biden administration's requirement that millions of United States health workers get vaccinated against the coronavirus, saying it would worsen staff shortages.
President Biden, a Democrat, said last Thursday he will enforce the mandate starting Jan 4.
"Placing this additional mandate on healthcare facilities and employees will exacerbate this problem and will likely lead some facilities — particularly those in underserved, rural areas — to close due to an inability to hire sufficient staff," Kansas Attorney General Derek Schmidt said in a statement.
