California State Assembly

If signed into law by Governor Jerry Brown, the bill is set to eliminate the “personal belief and religious” exceptions that California currently has on the books for vaccinations, but would keep in place the medical exemptions.

A group calling itself the Public Health Council paid for anti-SB 277 robo calls. In the automated message, a woman claiming to be a mother says the bill would “take away our right to make important medical decisions for our children.” She urges people to call their assemblymember and tell him or her to vote “no” on SB 277.

A Voice for Choice placed four advertisements in the Sacramento Bee this week. The ads look like political cartoons and show the supposed consequence of the bill becoming law: One depicts the tombstones of children who allegedly died of so-called ‘lethal vaccination.’

Supporters of the bill delivered a petition to Gov. Brown last Wednesday, with over 30, 000 signatures, urging the governor approve the bill.
