About this Petition Petition Letter Petition Updates

48 other states and the United States Military allow for non-medical vaccination exemptions. West Virginians deserve the same rights as those citizens. There are legitimate religious and philosophical reasons to selectively vaccinate. But in West Virginia, those with religious or philosophical objections to some or all vaccines are not permitted to send their children to public school. This must change!  

We ask that the 2012 West Virginia Legislature pass a bill to provide parents with non-medical vaccination exemptions.
