The District of Columbia is considering a bill that would remove the requirement that all eligible students in DC receive a Covid shot by amending the Immunization of School Students Act of 1979.

Every student has the right to an education regardless of their vaccination status especially when the science clearly demonstrates that unvaccinated people do not pose a risk to others.

We need YOUR voice to help B25-0278 pass!

Sample script:

My name is ____ and I live in (town).  I am emailing to ask Council Member ____ to support B25-0278. 

This bill would amend the Immunization of School Students Act of 1979 thus removing the requirement that eligible students receive a Covid shot.

There have been no long-term studies on the safety of these shots.  Students should not be forced to be injected with an experimental substance that could cause serious side effects.  As of 5/12/23, there have been 2,476,744 adverse events and 35,387 deaths reported in connection with the Covid shots to the CDCs Vaccine Adverse Events Reporting System (VAERS) and it is estimated that only 1-10 percent of adverse reactions are ever reported.  And yet the manufacturers are shielded from liability for any harm they cause. 

Vaccine mandates are being justified by the idea of the greater good and protecting other people.  But no individual should be forced to take a medical treatment for someone elses benefit.

I urge Councilmember _______ to support this bill.
