A measles outbreak in the state has not stopped “medical freedom” activists from pushing forward with their goal. They now have an influential ally in Washington: Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
Rebecca Hardy and Michelle Evans helped found Texans for Vaccine Choice with a group of like-minded women in 2015, as measles was spreading in California. They defeated legislation tightening Texas school vaccine requirements, and helped oust the lawmaker who wrote it, earning a catchy nickname: “mad moms in minivans.”
Now, as a measles outbreak that began in West Texas spreads to other parts of the country, the “mad moms” have a slew of new allies. The 2024 elections ushered in a wave of freshman Republicans who back their goal of making all vaccinations voluntary. But no ally may be as influential as the one they gained in Washington: Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., the nation’s most prominent vaccine skeptic.
More than five dozen vaccine-related bills have been introduced in the Texas Legislature this year. Last week, the Texas House passed three of them. Those bills would make it easier for parents to exempt their children from school requirements; effectively bar vaccine makers from advertising in Texas; and prevent doctors from denying an organ transplant to people who are unvaccinated.
The Association of Immunization Managers, a national organization of state and local immunization officials, is tracking 545 vaccine-related bills in state legislatures around the country, 180 more than last year — evidence, the group’s leaders say, that Mr. Kennedy is changing the national conversation. After peaking at the height of the coronavirus pandemic, the number of vaccine-related bills had come down in recent years.
But the big fear of public health leaders that began during the pandemic, and accelerated with Mr. Kennedy’s political rise — that states will...

Do they carry?
I really enjoyed having measles as a kid.
My mom made me a pair of pajamas that were white with red dots and the neighbors would come by to see them! It was a hoot!
I suspect (know) the vax is worse than the jab.
Oops! The virus!
Bedtime!
I have to agree. Each child’s physical health needs to be considered.
My youngest adopted child ran an extremely high temperature, stopped breathing & admitted to E.R. after receiving the MMR. None of my other 14 had any issues.
This is absolutely the most severe immunization.
Perhaps, for children with weakened immunity the vaccine could be split into 3 different components.
Unseal the real information from studies regarding autism and vaccinations and let the evidence confirm or deny a correlation.
All we need to see is autism studies of kids who never get vaccines—like Amish and Mennonites...compared to the rest of kids.
I think we all know what that will show.
“None of my other 14 had any issues.”
That explains a lot !
Given your record, oh lowly and much-despised NYT, perhaps it’s best not to use the terms “mad moms”. After all, those moms produce things of worth. Your lot of “journalists” have produced meaningless drivel believed only by fellow marshmallow major leftists.
“Unseal the real information from studies regarding autism and vaccinations and let the evidence confirm or deny a correlation.”
I have to agree with you to unseal the real information from studies. However, we did not deal with the issue of autism. However, each child’s physical health needs to be considered before administering vaccines.
The EMS paramedics told my husband and I my sons was not their first case. He does have fine motor difficulty, but that have been diretly from his history of extreme malnutrition.
Pediatricians offices receive free vaccine from government. Then, they charge the patients! Perhaps, the vials become contaminated or had expired from gov’t to ped to child.
I thought it was weird when i took him to pediatrition tht she said “at least nothing worse happened!!!!”
I do believe a cover-up could be possible.
“That explains a lot !”
True. With 3 bio with 11 adopted children, I have been provided anecdotal evidence.
I am really beginning to hate leftists and their rhetoric.
Whatever happened to *My body, my choice*?
People should be free to not take any vaccines they don’t want to. And the people who want it have nothing to fear since they are vaccinated, so it should be none of their business what someone else wants to do.
Very kudos for adopted children, however my meaning was that it explains about your mental state re. promotion of the million+ Ukrainian deaths in the US-Russia proxy war.
my bad, poorly worded, should be: promotion of the US-Russia proxy war resulting in the million+ Ukrainian deaths.
No problem:
God calls each of us differently for His purpose.
Although, I do disagree that this invasion by Putin can be termed a US-Russia proxy war.
Curiously, although not our intention at the time our 2 adopted intact sibling groups (total of 11) were adopted from Russia.
ok, but don’t be too ridiculous,
The war was/is entirely a LondonMI6/WashingtonCIA/StateDept project from the start, at least 2014 in spite of the koolaid the msm has been promulgating.
TOTAL bullSchiff that bad man PUTIN just decided to take over Ukraine but simple minds believe it and pass it on.
All vaccines are dangerous today. You have no way of knowing what they are putting in then, rma, or whatever. Until you can sue the vaccine companies, don’t take vaccines.

They —do— live in Texas, so probably.
