On Feb. 11, 2026, Senator Rand Paul of Kentucky introduced a momentously important bill that stands a real chance of eventual passage, provided the grassroots get busy and back it. It is S.3853, an amendment to the Public Health Services Act. It would remove the liability shield for vaccine manufacturers that was passed in 1986. Senator Mike Lee of Utah is a cosponsor.
