Students who are a part of Texas’s taxpayer-funded education system could soon be joining the state’s private employees in having the freedom to refuse the COVID-19 vaccine without punishment if a bill recently filed in the legislature becomes law.

If passed, the Texas COVID Vaccine Freedom for Students Act would expand on a recently passed law that bans all vaccine mandates in private businesses, to include students at colleges, nursing programs, and medical schools that receive federal funds.
