A bill for an act relating to notice of immunization exemptions and providing civil penalties.
SF 2345 requires local health departments, schools, childcare centers, and colleges to include clear information about immunization exemption rules in all public communications about vaccines. It directly affects parents, guardians, and institutions like elementary/secondary schools, childcare facilities, and higher education institutions. The bill mandates this information be provided in written materials, websites, and registration documents, with a $1,000 civil penalty for each failure to comply. Penalties collected go to the state general fund, but the law does not change exemption eligibility or vaccine requirements.
