The state of Florida has sued the Biden administration, NASA, and more over what it says are "unlawful" COVID-19 vaccine mandates for federal contractors, Fox News reports.

The mandate, the suit argues, interferes with the state's employment policies and threatens the state's booming economy. It also alleges that President Joe Biden doesn't have the authority to issue the rule — which reportedly violates procurement law.

What are the details?

A portion of the lawsuit — which was filed by Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) and Florida Attorney General Ashley Moody — states, "Because the government's unlawful vaccine requirement seeks to interfere with Florida's employment policies and threaten Florida with economic harm and the loss of federal contracts, the State seeks relief from this Court."
