SB1756 would create a "conscience" exemption from school-immunization requirements; maintain existing prohibitions against Covid-19 vaccine mandates; and authorize pharmacists to provide ivermectin without a prescription.
The Senate passed SB1756 on March 9, 2026, by a vote of 23 to 15. We have assigned pluses to the yeas because every person has a fundamental right to medical freedom, as no government or private entity has any legitimate authority to rule over another's non-injurious healthcare decisions—particularly what they may consume or allow to enter their body. Arbitrarily compelling citizens to cover their face, quarantine, or be vaccinated under the guise of "preventative" medical treatment violates the natural rights retained by the people under the U.S. Constitution's Bill of Rights and 14th Amendment.

No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a Grand Jury, except in cases arising in the land or naval forces, or in the Militia, when in actual service in time of War or public danger; nor shall any person be subject for the same offence to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb; nor shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself, nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation.
United States Constitution
Ninth Amendment
The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people.
United States Constitution
14th Amendment Section 1
All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.
