Relating to: recognizing August as Immunization Awareness Month in Wisconsin.
SJR 85 is a symbolic resolution recognizing August 2025 as Immunization Awareness Month in Wisconsin. It does not create new laws or change existing requirements; instead, it formally acknowledges the importance of immunizations through a legislative declaration. The resolution cites statistics on vaccine effectiveness (e.g., preventing hospitalizations and deaths) and references Wisconsin’s school immunization rules, but the resolution itself has no direct impact on policy or individuals. It serves only as a public recognition gesture, with no funding, mandates, or enforcement mechanisms. This is a procedural resolution with no concrete policy changes.
