Limits requiring medical interventions by businesses, governmental entities, and educational institutions, and modifies state authority during public health disasters. No one should lose access to work, school, or public life for declining a medical intervention.
Provides protections for medical practitioners and health care institutions, including for the exercise of conscience, whistleblower activities, and free speech, with penalties. Signed by the Governor in May 2026. Doctors and nurses should be free to follow their conscience and speak openly without fear of reprisal.
Makes manufacturers liable for advertising a harmful vaccine and lets individuals sue for actual damages, court costs, and attorney fees. Families harmed by vaccines should have a path to accountability and compensation.
Modifies the state statutes governing disease control. Changes to disease control law can affect individual medical choices, so CODR is watching how it is applied.
Would expand the exemptions to state mandatory vaccination laws for school-aged children. Parents, not the state, should make vaccine decisions for their children, and every child deserves access to school.
An act establishing Connecticut vaccine standards, introduced to implement the governor’s budget recommendations. Transmitted to the governor in May 2026. State vaccine standards shape school and health requirements for families, so CODR is watching how they are set and used.
Would clarify the standard of care for immunization in the state. The description does not say what standard would apply, so CODR is watching how it could affect patient choice.
Would require enhanced informed consent for infant vaccinations and documentation in sudden unexpected infant death investigations. A substitute bill was assigned to the House Health & Human Development Committee in June 2026. Parents deserve full information before their infants are vaccinated, and infant deaths should be fully documented.
Bans vaccine manufacturers from paying, and practitioners from receiving, financial incentives for giving vaccines, and requires practitioners to give parents specified materials before vaccinating a minor. Parents deserve full information and care free of financial incentives before their children are vaccinated.
Lets individuals refuse examination, testing, or treatment, bans discrimination based on vaccination status, requires informed consent and an alternative schedule option for children’s vaccines, and lets pharmacists provide ivermectin without a prescription. Every person should be free to decline medical treatment without losing access to care.
