SB 871 has been PULLED!
Dear PERK Members,
SB871 is one of the worst bills, mandating children 0-17 to receive the Covid-19 vaccine and removing all personal belief exemptions. PERK team has called Senator Pan’s office directly and are working closely with other colleagues and Capitol contacts. According to Pan’s capitol staff, SB 871 was pulled. The bill is officially DEAD if it doesn’t get scheduled for the next two weeks. We will still stay vigilant. However, moments ago, the Capitol staff did state, “that it’s dead.” We expect an announcement soon.
We are winning because of you! Thank you! You answered our call to send letters of opposition and your non-stop pressure created this result. We are SO proud to work with you and honored that PERK can be one of the leading groups sounding the alarm this year. You are our heroes. You did not back down. The parents, the people, your calls, your emails, your texts, your donations, all the people who made their voice loud and clear that we would not accept this bill, nor amendments. Our children are our future.
We cannot win in this work without you taking the actions we ask you to take.
Thank you with all my heart!
Amy Bohn
President of PERK
*California Department of Public Health announced April 14th, 2022, (hours after Senator Pan’s statement) that it would be delaying any requirement of the COVID-19 vaccine for schools until at least the 2023-2024 school year (https://www.cdph.ca.gov/Programs/OPA/Pages/NR22-073.aspx). If this requirement is implemented on schools by the CDPH, it would allow for a Personal Belief Exemptions.
