Repeal the PREP Act and Vaccine Injury Compensation Act


Repeal the PREP Act and Vaccine Injury Compensation Act
The Issue
We, the undersigned American citizens, call on the United States Congress to immediately repeal two federal laws that grant sweeping legal immunity to pharmaceutical companies and vaccine manufacturers:
The Public Readiness and Emergency Preparedness (PREP) Act, passed in 2005
The National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act of 1986 (NCVIA)
These laws were created under the guise of public safety — but in reality, they strip away our most basic legal right: the right to hold corporations accountable when their products cause harm.
What’s at Stake
The PREP Act gives blanket immunity to manufacturers of vaccines, drugs, and devices used during a declared public health emergency. This includes experimental products authorized under Emergency Use Authorization (EUA). Victims of injury cannot sue in regular courts — even in cases of negligence or corporate misconduct.
The 1986 Vaccine Act created the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (VICP), a limited system that bars people from suing vaccine manufacturers directly. Instead, injured individuals must petition a government-run program that is slow, opaque, and often denies compensation.
Together, these laws created a dangerous legal vacuum — where corporations profit without consequences, and citizens are left voiceless and without recourse.
Why This Matters
Victims of serious injury often face financial ruin, lifelong disability, or death — with no accountability from the companies responsible.
These laws violate the principle of equal justice under the law — a cornerstone of our Constitution.
Trust in public health depends on transparency, choice, and accountability — not coercion and immunity.
No other industry enjoys this level of protection from liability — not car manufacturers, not food producers, not tech companies.
If a pharmaceutical product is truly safe and effective, then its makers should stand behind it — in both science and courtrooms.
A Call for Reform
We are not anti-medicine or anti-science. We are pro-accountability, pro-safety, and pro-justice. Americans deserve full access to their civil courts. Legal immunity for billion-dollar corporations is not just unethical — it is unconstitutional.
We, the undersigned, demand that:
The PREP Act be fully repealed, ending emergency-use liability shields
The National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act be repealed, restoring access to civil courts
Congress reestablish legal accountability and civil justice for all injured by medical products, just as in every other area of U.S. law
We Stand United
Our health, our families, and our freedom are too important to be left unprotected. We urge lawmakers to take immediate legislative action and restore the rights of the American people.
Repeal these unjust laws now.
