AB 2651 would require schools to notify parents when the California Department of Public Health determines that a school’s immunization rate has fallen below a state-established threshold. PERK strongly opposes this bill because it risks turning school immunization rates into a tool for pressure, stigma, and discrimination against families with lawful medical exemptions or children who are not fully vaccinated.

OPPOSE SF 3439 (MN)- Your right to decline vaccines for your child is up for vote
SF 3439 is a Minnesota bill that would remove the existing conscientious-belief exemption for the measles, mumps, and rubella vaccine requirement in child care, preschool, prekindergarten, elementary school, secondary school, and related educational settings. Under the bill, parents could no longer decline the MMR vaccine for their child based on religious, philosophical, personal, or conscientious beliefs; families would instead need to provide proof of MMR vaccination or qualify for a medical exemption. In effect, SF 3439 would condition a child’s access to school or child care on compliance with the MMR requirement unless a narrow medical exemption applies. This sets the stage for similar legislation to be passed in Minnesota, and across the United States.
