What's next for vaccination bill?
11:41 AM, May 14, 2015
Following approval by the Senate, the bill that would eliminate the personal choice exemption that allows parents to decide not to vaccinate their children and still attend school now moves to the Assembly for consideration.
First, the Assembly Rules Committee will determine to which committee or committees SB 277 will be assigned. Preliminary indications are that, unlike in the Senate where it was considered by three separate policy committees, it will be heard in the Assembly only by the Health Committee.
The Assembly committee hearing will likely take place sometime after June 8. Policy committees must act on all bills by July 17.
If the bill advances out of committee, it would then be considered by the full Assembly, likely in early September.
If, as is likely, the bill is amended by the Assembly, it will then be returned to the Senate for concurrence on those amendments.
A final vote to send it to the governor would have to be taken by Sept. 11.
If it is sent to Gov. Jerry Brown, he would then have until Oct. 11 to decide whether to sign or veto the bill.
