Time is of the essence.
We believe HB 168 is the best legislative option currently presented to ban vaccine mandates in Texas.
We have 5 days left in the 3rd special session and we have yet to pass any legislation that would ban vaccine mandates in Texas.
Due to House rules our window to pass something is even narrower. We need you to call right now.
HB 168 provides a strong legal standing to resist Biden’s radical Constitutional overreach that many other bills are missing. It is also allows an individual to refuse the vaccine instead of seeking an exemption, an opt-in rather than opt-out view. HB 168 further prevents adverse action or penalty of any kind against an individual who does not receive the COVID19 vaccine. HB 168 allows the Attorney General of Texas to sue if a person’s rights are violated, and that person is allowed to receive a minimum of $5,000 in damages.
Call House Speaker Dade Phelan, House State Affairs Committee Chairman Chris Paddie, Senate State Affairs Committee Chairman Bryan Hughes, and Lt. Gov. Dan Patick right now and tell them to pass HB 168 before the end of the 3rd Special Session.
Speaker of the House Dade Phelan: (512) 463-1000
House State Affairs Committee Chairman Chris Paddie: (512) 463-0556
Senate State Affairs Committee Chairman Bryan Hughes: (512) 463-0101
Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick: (512) 463-0001
Sincerely,
Becky Green
Chairman, Special Committee on Vaccine Mandates,
