During an 8-hour hearing, MA residents urged lawmakers to reject bills eliminating religious vaccine exemptions and allowing minors to be vaccinated without parental consent. Over 90% of testimony supported parental and religious rights. Advocates warned the bills would violate conscience and deny school access. Citizens also backed a bill to preserve exemptions and protect doctors issuing them. A vote is expected soon.
