WI Republicans prepare again to block student vaccination requirements
Fox News
Wisconsin Democratic Gov. Tony Evers is tightening meningitis and chickenpox vaccination requirements for students. State Republicans are preparing to block the policy.
The committee's co-chair, Republican Sen. Steve Nass, called the new provisions "arbitrary and capricious" in an message to constituents. The rules committee blocked the policy in the last legislative session as well.
"Unfortunately, Governor Evers, the (state Department of Health Services) and legislative Democrats vigorously oppose the right of parents and adults to make free decisions regarding immunizations," Nass said in his message.
