AI-generated summary, report an errorThis is a Senate resolution, which states the Senate's position but does not change any law. It would have the Senate support public health decisions based on science and agree with medical groups that recommend immunization. It would condemn the vaccine policies of Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., and oppose Florida's September 2025 proposal to end school immunization requirements. It would also oppose the politicization of the federal vaccine advisory committee and state that vaccines, including COVID-19 vaccines, should stay accessible and affordable, including through insurance coverage.
