The Iowa House Judiciary Committee voted in favor of a bill intended to prohibit so-called “vaccine passports” on Monday. The bill was introduced on Friday, two weeks after Gov. Kim Reynolds called for such legislation.
“I strongly oppose vaccine passports and I believe that we must take a stand as a state against them, which I intend to do either through legislation or executive action,” the governor said during her April 7 news conference.
Of course, vaccine passports do not exist in the United States and the Biden administration has said it will not require Americans to have any sort of COVID-19 vaccination documentation.
