Presidential cannidates and vaccinations  

post #1 of 3
Thread Starter 
This may be a really dumb question, but I'lm going to ask it anyway. We do not vaccinate our kids and if forced we would move to somewhere we weren't forced to vaccinate. So, my question is are either of the cannidates likely to try to pass a law requiring all children be vaccinated? I'm kind of assuming not since I haven't seen anything on here about it. My gut feeling though is that a democratic cannidate would be more likely than a republican to try to pass a law like that. What are your thoughts?

I am not sure I agree. The Republicans are known to befriend their pharma lobbyists will all sorts of favors in legislation, i.e. The Patriot Act.

Both candidates have requested more reseearch for vaccine safety research and (D) Caroline Maloney got bipartisan support for her bill to federally mandate the first study of vaccinated verses unvaccinated children.

I think there is hope and fear on either side.
