I just received this e-mail from my homeopath originally from the New York Center for Homeopathy.

Hello all....
This is for real and requires your immediate response. Please send this to anyone you know, especially in NY State, and make the calls today - time is of the essence as this bill (below) has been fast-tracked and we only have until June 10th, 2008!!! If you know anyone else who is opposed to mandatory vaccinations please send them this. If they live outside of New York just tell the representative that you live in the State or use a family member's address in NY - if this law passes in NY it will be your state next as NY is a bellweather state for these kinds of bills!

I called both offices. It takes literally two seconds. Just tell them you are calling about the vaccine bill.. and say you are opposed to
Assembly Bill 10942 and in favor of A5468/S3031.

Call Today to Stop Worst Vaccine Bill Ever in New York

Take Action!

ALL FEDERAL SHOTS WILL BECOME MANDATORY

Act now to stop the worst vaccine law ever proposed in New York since the invention of the mandatory schedule. Assembly Bill 10942 would make all vaccines recommended by the CDC mandatory for all children to attend
school and, and for the first time vaccines would become mandatory for infants
and toddlers.

The bill was introduced in Rules Committee at the request of Richard Daines, the Commissioner of the New York State Department of Health. The Rules Committee in the personal committee of the Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver
(D-Manhattan).

A-CHAMP is calling for rejection of this bill and is demanding the passage of A5468/S3031, a bill that would give individuals a right to a
philosophical exemption from vaccine mandates. This is no time to transfer vaccine decisions away from individuals and elected officials answerable to the voters and give it to obscure bureaucrats with financial ties to the vaccine industry.

Here are a few features of the proposed bill:
* Our elected New York representatives would no longer determine the
mandatory schedule of vaccines to attend school; decisions made by the
federal Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices would automatically
become mandatory.

* All children, infants and toddlers included, in New York would be
required to get all vaccines recommended by the ACIP according to the ACIP
schedule

* All children in New York up to age 18 would be required to get annual
flu shots.

* All girls in New York would be required to get a human papilloma
virus
shot.

* All junior high school children and college students would be
required
to get meningococcal shots.

* Doctors would be required to issue certificates for every shot given
and parents would be required to maintain the records and provide them to
school and other authorities.

* The rules committee claims that the new laws would have no fiscal
impact on the state despite the necessity of the state to spend tens of
millions on purchasing new vaccines, a vast increase in mandatory record
keeping and enforcement for schools, and a huge increase that could be
expected in the number of cases of neurological damage, Guillian Barré
syndrome and other vaccine-caused injuries.

We only have a few weeks to defeat this bill. Let your Assemblymember and State Senator know immediately that a vote for this bill guarantees that you will do everything you can to get them un-elected. In addition to emailing and calling your local representatives, please call Speaker Sheldon Silver and let his staff know, politely, that this is a disastrous idea. While
you are at it please call Governor David Paterson and let his staff know, politely, that this is a horrible law.
