On October 8th 2021 the Republican Party of Texas asked Governor Abbott to ban vaccine mandates by releasing an open letter to Governor Abbott and a Resolution Defending Medical Freedom and Personal Responsibility.
Following that announcement, Governor Abbott adding banning vaccine mandates to the 3rd Special Session call, however legislation on the issue failed to pass.
After the conclusion of the 3rd Special Session, the Republican Party of Texas once again sent an open letter to Governor Abbott requesting a 4th Special Session to resolve this issue, and indorsed HB 168 by Rep. Brian Harrison. To date, a 4th Special Session has not been called.
The following members of the Texas Legislature have made a public statement supporting a 4th Special Session to ban vaccine mandates:
- Sen. Dawn Buckingham
