Support HF 2694 No executive or public health department of this state should have the ability to "Order" you to test, treat, or vaccinate. That is a decision that should be left up to each individual Iowan. Our rights for our own body should NOT be null and void during an epidemic or at any other time! Its also critical to limit the ability that a single person has so that our freedoms in Iowa cannot be infringed upon. This is critical legislation that the people of Iowa have been asking for now for a few years.Please support and move this bill forward quickly!Thank you,Kevin Hendress

Hello Senators Rozenboom, Schultz, and Bisignano,I want to strongly encourage you to advance this legislation. My family lived in Maine during COVID and experienced many unconstitutional restrictions during that time from a Governor's orders, including the fact that the 10 person limit on in person church services excluded my 11 person family. That limit carried the threat of jail time and fines, something no one should ever face when going to church. This bill is a necessary part of making sure that no governor, Republican, Democrat, or Independent, violates the rights and liberties of Iowans. Thank you,Isaiah G. Lary Belmond, Iowa

Please SUPPORT HF 2694. This makes strides in MAINTAINING OUR RIGHTS as Iowans, as is touted in our state motto. Our rights to worship together, and to not be forced to take any injection against our will, among other things. Thank you.
