Change Texas law to make school health more transparent


Change Texas law to make school health more transparent
The Issue
More Texans are getting whooping cough and other vaccine-preventable diseases. More parents are choosing to send their children to public school without vaccinations for personal - not medical - reasons. Parents in Texas have a right to know whether or not schools are healthy environments.
Currently, school districts collect data about vaccine exemptions from individual school campuses, but only report school district level data to the public. All parents - parents of medically fragile children, parents of newborns and infants, and parents of older children with no medical issues - have a right to know which school campuses are safest for their children. Please sign this petition to show your support for changing Texas law to make school health more transparent and to help parents protect their children.
