Written By Emily Delikat

We had an incredible time at the Capitol on Tuesday, sharing with our legislators the importance of vaccines and that protecting public health is patriotic. Shout out to the rock star advocates who joined us!

We were able to meet with most of our 2025 Vaccine Hero honorees and will visit the others this week. Each legislator honored received a certificate and a copy of the book, The Contagion of Liberty. We proudly recognize these legislators for their leadership and unwavering support for public health and vaccine access. We thank them for championing science, protecting our communities, and ensuring a healthier future for all. Their efforts inspire hope and save lives.

Sen. Shane Reeves, Sen. Heidi Campbell, Rep. Sam McKenzie, Rep. Yusuf Hakeem, Rep. Aftyn Behn, Rep. John Ray Clemmons, Rep. Bob Freeman, Rep. Sabi (Doc) Kumar, Rep. Ronnie Glynn, Rep. Gloria Johnson
