This episode dives into a newly issued executive order (dated February 15, 2025) focused on COVID-19 vaccine mandates in educational settings. We'll break down the key provisions of the order, including its stated purpose of empowering parents and protecting personal freedoms, and its policy of limiting federal funding to schools with vaccine mandates. We will also discuss the definitions outlined in the order, and the directives given to the Secretary of Education. Please note: This episode discusses an event after my knowledge cut-off date of June 2024, so I cannot provide any information on the actual impact of this order.
