Producer Ruth Brown is joined by University of Idaho College of Law Professor Shaakirrah Sanders to discuss the state’s recent decision to challenge President Biden’s executive order on vaccines.

The state of Idaho has joined multiple other states in the lawsuit, led by Georgia, which challenges an executive order that would require employees of federal contractors be fully vaccinated by December 8, 2021, with few exceptions. The State Board of Education is also party to the lawsuit on behalf of Idaho universities.

Sanders applies constitutional principles around executive authority, states' rights, and federal contracting to examine the issue.
