SB 177 seeks to require healthcare providers to first obtain informed consent before administering a COVID-19 vaccination while also preventing penalties from being imposed against individuals who refuse to receive such a vaccination. SB 177 would also allow the Texas Attorney General to bring a suit against individuals who violate provisions of the legislation including in junction and the prevention of repeat violations. For these reasons, TFR supports SB 177.
