Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) has introduced a bill that would block the federal government and public schools from imposing COVID-19 vaccines on children.
Casting the issue as a fight between parents and schools, Cruz said that the federal government has “repeatedly ignored medical privacy rights and personal liberty by pushing unlawful and burdensome vaccine mandates on American businesses.”
Now, he argued, the administration is planning on “pressuring parents” into accepting vaccine mandates for school children “all without taking into account relative risk or the benefits of natural immunity,” according to a statement issued by his office last week.
