It's wild that this has to be a mandate on employers rather than on individuals. Like the government is incapable of doing anything without getting corporations involved.
I think it's to obfuscate questions like "what all can the federal government require individuals to put in their bodies?"

I've been posting predictions for a while that state power will be increasingly handed off to states and large cities.
I don't think our predictions are compatible, and I think both are fairly likely to happen, so it's going to some interesting times watching those forces in competition.
