AI Summary

This bill prohibits government entities in Minnesota from enforcing vaccine mandates, vaccine passports, or vaccine credentials through any form of legal mechanism, including federal acts, laws, executive orders, administrative orders, court orders, rules, regulations, statutes, or ordinances. The bill aims to protect individual liberties by preventing mandatory vaccination requirements and invoking states' rights under the Tenth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution. Additionally, the bill requires employers in Minnesota to accept proof of natural antibodies as an alternative to vaccination if they choose to mandate vaccines. Specifically, if an employer wants to require vaccination against an infectious disease, they must allow employees to demonstrate the presence of natural antibodies instead of receiving the vaccine. The term "employer" is defined according to existing Minnesota labor law (section 177.23, subdivision 6). The provisions of this bill would become effective immediately after final enactment, providing immediate protection against vaccine mandates and offering an alternative method of demonstrating immunity for employees.
