Bill > HB05341

This bill proposes to amend existing state law to restrict both employers and public officials from requiring or requesting COVID-19 vaccination proof. Specifically, the legislation would prohibit employers from demanding vaccination documentation from current employees, job applicants, customers, or vendors, and would also prevent employers from even inquiring about an individual's COVID-19 vaccination records. Additionally, the bill would restrict public officials from mandating COVID-19 vaccination proof as a condition for accessing state or municipal properties, including lands, parks, and buildings. The core purpose of this legislation appears to be protecting individual choice regarding COVID-19 vaccination and preventing potential discrimination or barriers to employment, business interactions, and public space access based on vaccination status. By implementing these prohibitions, the bill aims to limit what employers and government officials can require or ask about an individual's COVID-19 vaccination history.
