Kansas Legislature Passes Bill Regarding COVID Vaccine Mandates

 

The Kansas legislature approves a bill regarding COVID-19 vaccine mandates. The special session ended around 11:20pm last night. The legislation would cover exemptions for both medical and religious reasons. It will also provide unemployment benefits to anyone who has lost or loses their job because of a mandate. Any business that denies exemptions could face financial penalties.

 

State Senator Virgil Peck says the legislation they passed isn't as strong as he wished but it does provide protections for Kansas citizens. The Senate passed a bill that would not allow any vaccine mandate in the state but it wasn't approved by the House.  Governor Laura Kelly says she will sign this bill.
