“I am very disappointed in the 6th circuit panel decision.

“We are in the height of a workforce shortage and supply chain crisis, and I have no doubt these issues are only going to be compounded by this poor decision.

“The state has immediately asked the Supreme Court to stop this mandate.

“I will not stop fighting for Iowans and their personal freedoms and individual liberties.”
