That\u2019s the question an increasing number of state lawmakers are being asked to decide as they consider a new wave of proposed bills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Arizona is one of eight states that have introduced bills during the 2025 legislative session to establish or expand exemptions to school vaccine mandates, according to\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nvic.org\/about\/staff-volunteers\/dawn-richardson\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Dawn Richardson<\/a>, advocacy director for the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nvic.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">National Vaccine Information Center<\/a>\u00a0(NVIC).<\/p><div class=\"g g-1\"><div class=\"g-single a-20\"><a class=\"gofollow\" data-track=\"MjAsMSwxLDYw\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mypatriotsupply.com\/collections\/emergency-survival-food?_ef_transaction_id=&amp;uid=22&amp;oid=1&amp;affid=509\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"850\" height=\"500\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.activistpost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/MPS-Ad-1.jpg\"\/><\/a><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cVaccine mandates for school and childcare attendance and their corresponding vaccine exemptions have been in state law for decades,\u201d Richardson said. But this year, \u201cmore states have bills to expand these exemptions than to restrict or remove them.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2010, Richardson created and launched the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/nvicadvocacy.org\/members\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">NVIC Advocacy Portal<\/a>, which provides free information about proposed state vaccine laws. Since then, she and her team have analyzed, tracked and issued positions on over 1,000 vaccine-related bills across the U.S.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cUntil medical mandates are a relic of history \u2014 and that day is coming \u2014 religious exemptions are the primary way to avoid medical coercion,\u201d said Children\u2019s Health Defense CEO Mary Holland.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to Richardson, only three states \u2014 Hawaii,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/live.childrenshealthdefense.org\/chd-tv\/shows\/good-morning-chd\/attack-on-religious-exemption-to-vaccination-in-massachusetts\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Massachusetts<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/legiscan.com\/NJ\/bill\/A1812\/2024\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">New Jersey<\/a>\u00a0\u2014 proposed legislation this year attempting to remove school vaccine mandate exemptions. However,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/childrenshealthdefense.org\/defender\/hawaii-kills-bill-end-vaccine-exemptions\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Hawaii lawmakers<\/a>, under pressure from constituents, voted last month to table the bill, which would have repealed the state\u2019s religious exemption from<a href=\"https:\/\/childrenshealthdefense.org\/defender_category\/vaccines-2\/\">\u00a0vaccine<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/childrenshealthdefense.org\/defender_category\/mandates-censorship-surveillance\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">\u00a0mandates<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Meanwhile, other states are advancing legislation that strengthens or expands vaccine exemptions. For instance,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/legiscan.com\/AL\/bill\/HB503\/2025\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Alabama<\/a>\u00a0lawmakers on April 3 passed a bill that specifies that a parent or guardian\u2019s written declaration is \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/alison.legislature.state.al.us\/files\/pdf\/SearchableInstruments\/2025RS\/HB503-int.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">sufficient documentation<\/a>\u201d to exempt his or her child from a vaccine requirement for religious reasons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Alabama lawmakers are also considering a bill that would require private and church schools to\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/legiscan.com\/AL\/text\/HB444\/2025\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">accept religious exemptions<\/a>\u00a0to vaccine requirements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On March 26,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/governor.utah.gov\/press\/gov-cox-signs-100-bills-in-the-2025-general-legislative-session\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Utah\u2019s governor signed into law<\/a>\u00a0a measure to ensure that public school students\u2019 vaccine\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/le.utah.gov\/~2025\/bills\/static\/HB0228.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">exemption forms don\u2019t expire<\/a>\u00a0and that they travel with them when the students transfer to another school.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some of the state bills proposed this year focus on exemptions from vaccine mandates in the workplace rather than at school.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, Texas lawmakers are considering a law that would require healthcare facilities that have vaccine mandates to honor exemptions for \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/legiscan.com\/TX\/text\/HB1468\/id\/3029135\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">reasons of conscience<\/a>, including a religious belief.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Texas also introduced three other bills related to expanding or improving vaccine exemptions, according to legislative data Richardson shared with The Defender.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>\u2018Momentum is gaining to remove vaccine mandates\u2019<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Holland noted that a handful of states allow only medical exemptions, not religious exemptions. Those states are California, New York, Connecticut and\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/wgme.com\/news\/local\/maine-legislature-to-discuss-bills-on-vaccine-exemptions-for-students\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Maine<\/a>. \u201cThey make even legitimate medical exemptions virtually impossible to obtain.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe good news,\u201d Holland said, \u201cis that\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/childrenshealthdefense.org\/defender\/idaho-governor-signs-law-prohibiting-vaccine-mandates\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Idaho<\/a>\u00a0just became the first medical freedom state, by outlawing any medical intervention mandates that prohibit people from participating in social life based on medical status. Likely, this will be a template for other states going forward.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Idaho Gov. Brad Little signed the law almost a week after he<a href=\"https:\/\/childrenshealthdefense.org\/defender\/supporters-idaho-override-governors-veto-medical-mandates\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">\u00a0vetoed a previous version<\/a>\u00a0of the bill, citing concerns it would have prohibited schools from sending home \u201csick students with highly contagious<a href=\"https:\/\/childrenshealthdefense.org\/defender_category\/health-conditions\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">\u00a0conditions<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The new version of the bill clarifies that schools and businesses can turn away students, employees or customers who are sick, but they cannot require a medical intervention, including a vaccine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The new version also specified that<a href=\"https:\/\/blog.idahoreports.idahoptv.org\/2025\/04\/04\/responding-to-veto-legislature-passes-new-medical-freedom-bill\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">\u00a0schools cannot exclude unvaccinated children<\/a>\u00a0during an outbreak of a contagious disease they are not vaccinated against.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Bills that outright prohibit vaccine mandates \u2018much preferable\u2019<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Richardson said bills like the one passed in Idaho are part of a positive trend she and her team are seeing across recent legislative sessions, including this one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cMomentum is gaining to remove\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.wspa.com\/news\/state-news\/sc-senate-committee-discusses-vaccine-bill\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">vaccine mandates<\/a>,\u201d she said, \u201cbut medical trade and pharmaceutical lobbyists are working against medical freedom and informed consent.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThis is why it is so important for people to speak with their legislators about how prohibiting vaccine mandates and requiring informed consent to vaccination without penalty for saying \u2018no\u2019 is very important to them,\u201d Richardson said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bills that outright prohibit vaccine mandates \u2014 rather than just ensuring that a person can apply for an exemption \u2014 are \u201cmuch preferable\u201d in Richardson\u2019s view because they \u201cmake vaccine exemptions not even necessary.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAs we saw with school vaccine exemptions,\u201d Richardson said, \u201csometimes [exemptions] can get taken away as evidenced in recent years in California, Connecticut, Maine, New York and Vermont.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>\u2018People are waking up\u2019<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nvic.org\/about\/mission-vision\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">NVIC\u2019s mission<\/a>\u00a0is to prevent vaccine injuries through public education and to advocate for informed consent protections in medical policies and\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/childrenshealthdefense.org\/defender_category\/health\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">public health<\/a>\u00a0laws.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Commenting on state legislative action since 2010, NVIC\u2019s Executive Director\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nvic.org\/about\/staff-volunteers\/theresa-wrangham\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Theresa Wrangham<\/a>\u00a0said she has seen a shift toward more proposed legislation to protect informed consent and people\u2019s choice to vaccinate or not vaccinate without penalty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When NVIC first began, Wrangham said she saw a \u201clot of movement to try to restrict exemptions.\u201d But overall, that\u2019s changed. \u201cI think people are waking up \u2026That\u2019s grassroots.
