Senate Passes ‘Vaccine Freedom Act’
From The Texas Scorecard
Texans would be shielded from coerced COVID-19 vaccines under legislation that has passed the Senate. Darrell Frost reports the measure was adopted 20-11.
Senate Bill 177 by State Sen. Mayes Middleton (R–Galveston) would require “informed consent” before a COVID-19 vaccine was administered. It would also prohibit any action intended to “compel or coerce” an individual into giving such consent, as well as prohibit taking an “adverse action” against someone for refusing to receive a vaccination for COVID-19.
Middleton said he pushed the legislation because “no Texan should have to choose between their sincerely held beliefs on the COVID vaccine and their right to make a living and feed their family.”
