UPDATE: 5/4/2023 - HF 507 was held over for consideration in the 2024 second regular session. The first regular session ended on 5/4/2023.

UPDATE: 3/4/2023 - HF 507 failed to be scheduled for a hearing in the House Health and Human Services Committee before the deadline of 3/4/2023. It will be held over for consideration in the 2024 second regular session.
HF 507 was introduced and referred to the House Health and Human Services Committee on 2/28/2023. It was sponsored by Representative Luana Stoltenberg and co-sponsored by Representatives M.THOMPSON, HAYES, OSMUNDSON, THOMSON, GERHOLD,SHERMAN, CISNEROS, and DIEKEN.
HF 507 would prohibit the CDC and WHO from having jurisdiction in Iowa. The bill increases consumer options for inclusion in the state vaccine tracking system, but it doesn't address providers uploading data to the state's system.
