Grace Smith Medical Freedom Act.

HB 1010 (Grace Smith Medical Freedom Act) would require Wyoming county and state health officers to grant written waivers for K-12 students' immunization requirements or mask mandates upon request from parents, guardians, or authorized adults. The bill specifies health officers must process these requests within seven business days, with exemptions allowed for religious objections or medical contraindications. Students with granted waivers would still be excluded from school during vaccine-preventable disease outbreaks, as determined by health authorities. This proposed legislation, introduced in 2021 but never advanced, would directly affect K-12 students and their families seeking exemptions from school health requirements.
