HF2298 ensures that K-12 students cannot be forced into receiving a COVID-19 vaccination.
The Iowa State House of Representatives passed HF2298 on February 28, 2022 by a vote of 57 to 36. We have assigned pluses to the ayes because an individual’s personal health care decisions should not be the object of government, nor be under its federal, state, or local jurisdictions in the United States. Forcing an individual to produce their vaccination status would be a violation of their fundamental rights, freedoms, privileges, or immunities protected by the Bill of Rights and the 14th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution.
