More specifically, the official text was summarized by the state legislature as ’’Relating to a prohibition on vaccination mandates’’.
The following is our breakdown, based on the actual bill text, and may include interpretation to clarify its provisions.
This bill seeks to prohibit vaccination mandates across various sectors in Texas. It amends the Education Code to specify that both public and private schools cannot require immunizations for admission or attendance, while health and human services agencies are barred from taking punitive actions against individuals who decline vaccination. Furthermore, institutions of higher education are prohibited from mandating immunizations for admissions. The bill emphasizes consent by prohibiting vaccinations during examinations without parental consent, unless the state has custody of the child. It also mandates that various facilities update their vaccine-preventable disease policies by Jan. 1, 2026, requiring a non-discriminative approach towards individuals who decline recommended vaccines. Immunization lists are to be provided by the Department of State Health Services in both English and Spanish, ensuring accessibility. The changes related to education take effect in the 2025-26 school and academic years, with overall implementation on Sept. 1, 2025, unless immediate effect is achieved through a two-thirds majority vote.
