Protect freedom of choice regarding vaccines in Michigan.
Today I received the following email from Suzanne Waltman of Michigan Opposing Mandatory Vaccines (MOM). This is the consumer watchdog group in Michigan. “I am afraid we may be facing the loss of our vaccine exemptions in Michigan if YOU don’t come to Lansing when the House and Senate Health Policy Committees hear HB 5605 and SB 1185, which would preserve vaccine choice in the workplace. If we do not show up in large numbers (hundreds of us!), this will be a signal to big pharma, special interest groups, and lawmakers that we don’t care about our vaccine exemptions in the workplace, in school, or anywhere!” See two recent editorials from The Detroit News below:
From the Michigan Primary Consortium: “Health workers need flu shots” and Barb Skurnowicz’s response (representing HealthCare Professionals for Vaccine Choice): “No forced vaccine in Michigan.”
Please email Suzanne (momvaccines@gmail.com) if you want to be notified when the hearings will take place. And support MOM’s vigilance by joining now.
