Hi John,

I've just published a new blog post:
[link removed] Mandates are on
the Ballot
<[link removed]>

Last week, the CDC added COVID-19 vaccines to the "recommended
immunization schedules" for children. The stakes in the midterm
elections are now even higher.

Importantly, CDC Board Members emphasized their decision is

**not**itself a mandate:

**"The decision around school entrance for vaccines rests where it did
before, which is with the state level, the county level and at the
municipal level, if it exists at all. They are the arbiters of what
vaccines are required, if any, for school entry."**

In other words, whether we have a child vaccine mandate for COVID
depends on who holds political power after November.

Right now, California is the only state with a K-12 mandate "pending."
That's because after we defeated Senator Pan's mandate bill earlier
this year, a humiliated Newsom withdrew his own version but kept it on
the books for possible future implementation.

If he thinks he can get away with it - and if he remains Governor -
Newsom will undoubtedly re-activate the mandate for next school year.
That's why we must elect candidates at every level who will fight
against it, starting with these 200 candidates

I've endorsed for school board.

My own opponent is a radical mandate enthusiast. Kermit celebrated
Pan's SB 277, which eliminated exemptions for child vaccinations. He
expressed "excitement" about vaccinating five-year-olds for COVID and
described opposition to mandates as "fear-mongering."

If Kermit prevails, he and Newsom will cast the election as a mandate
for the mandate. Our victory, of course, will send precisely the
opposite message. The rights of parents truly are on the ballot like
never before.

Help me stop Newsom's mandate
