Yeah, there was an OSHA reg for larger companies that went into effect in the winter and was promptly blocked by the 5th Circuit Court. The stay issued by the court was just overturned in the past week, so those companies have until February 9th to get their shit together before they start racking up fines for non-compliance.
It wasn't really a vaccine mandate per se, though -- just a requirement for fully vaccinated employees to provide documentation, and for unvaccinated people (or those who refuse to provide proof of vaccination) to wear masks and test weekly. Moot point with Omicron, since it has such a high breakthrough infection rate.
