Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky has introduced a bill (S.3853) that would repeal vaccine manufacturers’ liability shield, empowering injured people to pursue civil action against vaccine manufacturers for vaccine-related injuries and deaths for the first time since 1986.

IN 1986, Americans' Seventh Amendment right to a trial by jury for injuries was repealed to benefit one product: vaccines. Vaccines are the only product to have this sweeping legal protection.  

Paul’s bill is the companion bill to Rep. Paul Gosar’s bill in the House, “End the Vaccine Carve Out Act” HR 4668.

Repealing our right to sue eliminated the single most powerful incentive manufacturers have to make safe products. 

Since the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) was created in 1990 more than 2.7 million adverse events have been reported to the CDC. A CDC study found that only 1% of vaccine injuries are reported. 

TAKE ACTION

Use the panel to the right to send a message to your two US Senators asking them to cosponsor urging them to support and co-sponsor H.R. 4668.

And please call your two US Senators and ask them to co-sponsor S3853.

There are two essential reforms we must have to end the vaccine cartel’s control over our government and our bodies. 

First, we must end mandates. Government has no authority to command what we must put in our bodies or our children’s bodies. Any pretense that government has the competence and moral clarity to make such decisions was incinerated by COVID. 

Second, we must regain our Seventh Amendment right to go to court for any injury worth more than $20. The inability to sue a vaccine company destroys any incentive to assure their products are safe. S3853 takes us a long way toward this goal.

Beginning with the National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act of 1986, the vaccine cartel has steadily eroded our right to legal redress for those injured by vaccines. The “vaccine court” was created to replace our former right to go to court rooted in centuries of American and English law and has proven to be a complete sham. 

The destruction of our rights advanced with the Public Readiness and Emergency Preparedness Act (PREP) Act in 2004 and the Countermeasures Injury Compensation Program, which erodes our rights to sue in a far more complete way than in the vaccine court.  And as we speak, the pesticide injury is attempting to eliminate our right to sue for injury with their products. 

Basic legal rights should never be repealed to benefit politically favored products, industries or companies. S3853 is a long overdue restoration of fundamental human rights.
