The journey toward medical freedom in Tennessee continues, and we need your help. HB 1156 is a crucial step, ensuring that parents, not the government, decide what is best for their children by removing the state’s requirement that parents follow the CDC’s vaccine schedule.
Right now, Tennessee law references federal agencies and private organizations like the CDC and the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) to set vaccine expectations for parents—agencies that operate outside state oversight and accountability. HB 1156 eliminates this mandate, reducing the state’s power in private medical decisions and reinforcing parental rights.
While this bill does not remove all state-imposed immunization laws, it is a critical step toward further restraining government control over healthcare. No bureaucracy should dictate personal medical decisions, and Tennessee must continue moving toward protecting individual rights and the freedom to make such decisions without government interference.
We need your voice! Contact your legislators today and urge them to support HB 1156 to push back against government overreach and advance true medical freedom in Tennessee.
