Vaccinations for medical staff. Authorized the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) to require emergency authorized VIRUS-vaccinations of all healthcare workers working in or for facilities/organizations that utilize Medicare and Medicaid services (i.e., federal funded programs). The lawmakers grounded their authority to enact this legislation in multiple clauses within the Constitution. However, business-owners, school districts, and civil liberties groups soon filed lawsuits in federal courts across the country citing government overreach and abuse of federal power. Three plaintiffs in Tennessee joined together and their case was the first to reach a federal district court. The district court judge ruled against the plaintiffs, citing certain provisions in the Constitution and the extraordinary times we live in. However, on appeal the 6th Circuit Court of Appeals rejected parts of the district court's ruling. The three-judge panel ruled that provisions (A), (B), and (F) were consistent with the Constitution but they also struck down provisions (C), (D), and (E). objective: The task is to figure out what parts of the Constitution might sections be defensible under?
