AI Summary
This bill, known as the "Prohibition of Employment-Related Vaccine Passports Act," prohibits employers from requiring or coercing employees or job applicants to disclose their vaccination or immunity status, including for COVID-19. It prevents employers from discriminating against individuals based on their vaccination or immunity status, such as by refusing to hire, terminating, or otherwise adversely affecting their employment. The bill allows individuals to file civil lawsuits against employers who violate these provisions and awards them monetary damages and reasonable attorney fees if they prevail.
