Oregon’s legislators have introduced several good bills, including bills that would protect people from Covid shot mandates, vaccine passports and various forms of discrimination, and bills to offer reinstatement of employment to those who refused Covid-19 vaccination. Unfortunately, none but one of the bills has a chance of making it through to the governor’s desk.
SB 78 would direct state agencies to offer reinstatement to employees who were terminated or retired because of Covid-19 shot mandates, and those persons who retired may have to return any amounts they received from the Public Employees Retirement Board. Within 30 days of the bill going into effect, the agencies must notify those who were terminated and they, in turn, will have 30 days to respond.
SB 78 must pass out of the Senate Committee on Rules and then the full Senate to move to the House perhaps no later than May 19.

SAMPLE SCRIPT:
My name is ____ and I live in (town). I am emailing to ask Senator ____ to support SB 78 and vote for its passage. SB 78 would direct state agencies to offer reinstatement to employees who were terminated or retired because of Covid-19 shot mandates.
There have been no long-term studies on the safety of these shots. People should not be forced to be injected with an experimental substance that could cause serious side effects. As of 4/28/23, there have been 2,469,498 injuries and 35,028 deaths reported in connection with the Covid shots to the CDC’s Vaccine Adverse Events Reporting System (VAERS) — and it is estimated that only 1-10 percent of adverse reactions are ever reported. And yet the manufacturers are shielded from liability for any harm they cause.
Vaccine mandates are being justified by the idea of the “greater good” and protecting other people. But no individual should be forced to take a medical treatment for someone else’s benefit.
I urge Senator _____to SUPPORT passage of SB 78.
TALKING POINTS for calls and emails:
Keep your email short! Pick the 2 or 3 of these talking points – or none of them — that are most important to you, and be sure to explain why this issue matters to you personally.
- Share why this is personal to you. Do you have philosophical or religious beliefs that conflict with vaccination? Have you or someone you know had a vaccine reaction?
- No one knows in advance whom a vaccine will harm. Each of us may respond differently as we have different medical histories, genes, epigenetics, and microbiomes.
- Data from 145 of the most vaccinated countries show that Covid shots are associated with a 31 percent increase in deaths.
- The mRNA Covid shots include polyethylene glycol (PEG), an immunogenic chemical compound associated with severe allergic reactions that can lead to death.
- Some Covid shot batches have been found to contain metallic particles, and all mRNA shots contain dangerous lipid nanoparticles, which can create a series of toxic reactions, including damage to DNA.
- Manufacturers originally claimed their Covid shots were 95 percent effective. The Director of the CDC now admits Covid shots do not prevent Covid. For this reason alone, people should not be forced to submit to the injections. https://edition.cnn.com/us/live-news/coronavirus-pandemic-vaccine-updates-08-05-21/h_d2accec79fdc37f422d02c536828ea1e
- Covid shot manufacturers and providers are shielded from liability through the Public Readiness and Emergency Preparedness Act, or PREP Act. The only option for compensating people injured by COVID-19 vaccines is the Countermeasures Injury Compensation Program (CICP). Only eight percent of all petitioners since 2010 have been awarded compensation through the CICP. No legal or medical expert fees are covered, no pain and suffering is awarded, lost wages are capped at $50,000 per year, and there is no judicial appeal. In other words, the victims will be severely under-compensated while the pharmaceutical companies get rich.

- There have already been 2,469,498 Covid-19 shot adverse events and 35,028 Covid-19 shot deaths reported in the U.S. to the Vaccine Adverse Events Reporting System (per data released 4/28/23).

- There are no long-term studies of Covid-19 shots on the safety, genotoxicity, carcinogenicity, or effect on reproduction.
- COVID injections were not properly tested and are dangerous, as confirmed by Pfizer’s own documents.
- Vaccine manufacturers such as Pfizer, Merck, and GlaxoSmithKline have paid billions of dollars in criminal penalties and settlements for research fraud, faking drug safety studies, failing to report safety problems, bribery, kickbacks, and false advertising [1,2]. Pfizer paid $2.3 billion in 2009 alone to resolve criminal and civil allegations [3].
