Policy Recommendations

The 2026 State of the ImmUnion® brief details ways policymakers can better protect our communities from vaccine-preventable diseases including: 

  1. Increase critical funding for Section 317 Immunization Program
  2. Protect and improve compensation programs for the rare cases of vaccine injury by supporting changes to strengthen the Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (VICP)
  3. Conduct effective oversight of the Department of Health and Human Services to ensure decisions that affect public health and immunizations follow proper protocols and are based on true gold standard science
  4. Amplify the importance of lifesaving vaccines and on-time vaccination with your constituents and colleagues

 

Please join us in urging Congress to protect our communities by sharing these recommendations from our report with them.
