The main purpose of this legislation is to prevent colleges and universities from requiring students and staff to get COVID-19 vaccines in order to enroll, work, or access services. The goal is to ensure that individuals have the choice to decide whether or not to receive the vaccine without facing penalties or restrictions from educational institutions. Key provisions of the law include a clear prohibition on any institution of higher education from mandating COVID-19 vaccinations. If an institution does impose such a requirement, it risks losing federal funding.
