Maddy summaryHB 1010 (Grace Smith Medical Freedom Act) would require Wyoming county and state health officers to grant written waivers for K-12 students' immunization requirements or mask mandates upon request from parents, guardians, or authorized adults. The bill specifies health officers must process these requests within seven business days, with exemptions allowed for religious objections or medical contraindications. Students with granted waivers would still be excluded from school during vaccine-preventable disease outbreaks, as determined by health authorities. This proposed legislation, introduced in 2021 but never advanced, would directly affect K-12 students and their families seeking exemptions from school health requirements.

Grace Smith Medical Freedom Act-2.
Maddy summaryThis bill requires Wyoming county and state health officers to grant waivers for school immunization requirements and mask mandates for K-12 students upon written request from parents, legal guardians, or authorized adults. Waivers must be approved within seven business days for religious objections or medical contraindications to vaccines, and for mask mandates. The bill does not eliminate immunization or mask requirements but creates a standardized process for requesting exemptions. It applies directly to students attending Wyoming public or private schools from kindergarten through 12th grade. The law takes effect immediately upon becoming law.
