February 9, 2023, California AB 659- HPV vaccine mandate bill was introduced for school kids grade 8 and up by Assembly Member Aguiar-Curry, and co-authored Assembly Members Wendy Carrillo, Friedman, Kalra, Ortega, Papan, and Blanca Rubio and Senator Wiener.
AB 659 will require the Human Papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine to attend 8-12 grade in public or private school, starting January 1 2024.
There is a long process before a bill can become a law. This bill has not been assigned to committees yet. But you can start taking action today to voice your opposition.
Action steps:
1) Meet with your CA Assembly Member office to discuss your opposition to AB 659.
2) Meet with your Religious Leaders to ask them to oppose AB 659.
3) Meet with your School Board Members to discuss AB 659 and ask them to oppose the bill.
* As always, maintain a professional demeanor when communicating with legislators and leaders
