In Texas, personal freedom is at the heart of who we are. The right to make informed decisions about our own health and bodies is a cornerstone of our liberty. When it comes to vaccines, this fundamental right must be protected. While vaccines have undoubtedly played a critical role in controlling diseases, no government – especially one that prides itself on freedom – should have the power to impose mandates that infringe upon an individual’s autonomy. Texans value choice, responsibility, and the right to make decisions based on personal circumstances, medical advice, and personal convictions.
Mandates undermine the very freedoms that make Texas great. Forcing individuals into medical decisions against their will disregards personal freedoms and the trust Texans place in their ability to govern their own lives. Health decisions should remain in the hands of families and individuals, not government officials. It’s time we reaffirm our commitment to liberty, allowing Texans to decide what is best for their health while ensuring our communities remain safe through voluntary, informed actions. The strength of Texas lies in its people, and we must preserve the freedom to choose as we chart our own path forward.
