SB295 prohibits a requirement for any individual to receive a COVID-19 vaccine for the purposes of student enrollment, employment, or medical treatment.
The Senate passed SB295 on March 26, 2024, by a vote of 25 to 11. We have assigned pluses to the yeas because vaccine mandates should be opposed, as an individual’s non-injurious personal health care decisions should be considered private matters not under federal, state, or local jurisdiction in the United States. Compelling every person to be vaccinated under the guise of “preventive medical treatment” violates the fundamental rights of the people protected by the Bill of Rights and the 14th Amendment.
