Fox 40: After Delay, Lawmakers Approve California Vaccine Bill

By AP Wire, Apr. 22, 2015, Fox40.com

A California Senate committee has approved a bill that would require California schoolchildren to be vaccinated.

The Senate Education Committee voted 7-2 Wednesday on the bill by Sen. Richard Pan, a Democratic pediatrician from Sacramento, with votes from both Democrats and Republicans.

Medical waivers would only be available for children who have health problems.
