Congressman Andy Biggs introduced a bill called the Nullify the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (NOSHA) Act.
The bill aims to abolish the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) as a response to the Biden administration vaccine mandate. OSHA announced they would require businesses with at least 100 employees to mandate workers receive the COVID-19 vaccine or be tested weekly.
“OSHA’s existence is yet another example of the federal government creating agencies to address issues that are more appropriately handled by state governments and private employers,” stated Biggs. “Arizona, and every other state, has the constitutional right to establish and implement their own health and safety measures, and is more than capable of doing so. It’s time that we fight back against the bloated federal government and eliminate agencies that never should have been established in the first place. I will not let OSHA push Arizona around with their bureaucratic regulations and urge my colleagues to support my effort to eliminate this unconstitutional federal agency.”
Reps. Chip Roy and Thomas Massie are cosponsoring the bill.
