SACRAMENTO, Calif. — California lawmakers this year set out to advance bills that would require COVID-19 vaccines for more people and would make them easier to access.
They have largely failed on the vaccine mandate front.
This spring, Sen. Richard Pan, D-Sacramento, and Assemblywoman Buffy Wicks, D-Oakland, pulled bills that would have required vaccines for all California workers and would have added the COVID-19 shot to a list of immunizations students need to attend school.
