A Clio Democrat wants to make a new immunization rule a new law in Michigan.

State Representative Pam Faris plans on introducing a bill this fall to solidify the change, which was approved in December.
The new rule requires parents go to their county public health department to sign a waiver if they don’t want their kids vaccinated.

It also requires them to sit through an educational session with a nurse.

Faris believes the education component is key as some parents may not be as informed as they should be on what vaccines do and don’t do.
