Two bills limiting vaccine rights go down in flames

Oregon and Washington State bills defeated
 

    More great news. Yesterday evening it was confirmed that House Bill HB 2009, a Washington State bill that would eliminate exemptions from vaccine mandates for secular reasons, was dead for the remainder of the legislative session!  Yesterday afternoon we heard that the Democratic State Senator in Oregon who introduced a bill to eliminate exemptions from mandatory vaccines in Oregon decided to withdraw the bill in response to tremendous opposition.

    There are efforts to reduce or eliminate vaccine rights in almost every state. Please click on the Take Action link to send the following stories, one from the Oregon Statesman, and the other from ABC News in Washington, to your state legislators letting them know that limiting parental vaccine rights is an idea whose time has not come.
