A vast majority of federal employees and federal contractors, as well as 17 million health care workers in hospitals and other institutions that receive Medicare and Medicaid funding, must also be vaccinated or face possible disciplinary measures if they refuse. The sweeping actions, which will affect two-thirds of all American workers, are the most expansive he has taken to control the pandemic since he assumed the presidency in January, and will affect almost every aspect of American society. Roughly 80 million Americans who are eligible for shots have not been vaccinated. “We can and we will turn the tide on Covid-19,” Biden said at the White House.

They said that Afghans with dual citizenship would be allowed to leave. The Second Amendment Preservation Act went into effect at the end of August.Christopher Smith for The New York Times 4.

Consider adding more butterfly weed to your garden.Heather McCargo 9. Our garden columnist makes the case to plant more wildflowers. Once the native perennial species of meadows — milkweeds, asters, Joe Pye weed and other wildflowers — finish flowering in the coming weeks, they will go to seed. That’s when gardeners can nurture the next generation by collecting and sowing them. And in a shifting climate, with environmental diversity at risk, it’s never been more important to propagate these plants. [Here’s how to do it right](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRjHQvgP0T-aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyMS8wOS8wOC9yZWFsZXN0YXRlL2dyb3dpbmctd2lsZGZsb3dlcnMtaXNudC1kaWZmaWN1bHQtYW5kLWl0cy11cmdlbnQuaHRtbD9jYW1wYWlnbl9pZD01NyZlbWM9ZWRpdF9uZV8yMDIxMDkwOSZpbnN0YW5jZV9pZD00MDAxOSZubD1ldmVuaW5nLWJyaWVmaW5nJnJlZ2lfaWQ9Nzc2NzQ5NTImc2VnbWVudF9pZD02ODUyMyZ0ZT0xJnVzZXJfaWQ9YWE0OTFlZjdmMWQ5NjRlNDk3OWZiNzg0ZTc0ZTAxZDdXA255dEIKYTjghjph_jDSl1IbdHJpc3RyYW1iYWxkd2luOTBAZ21haWwuY29tWAQAAAAA).
