Remember: States, not the federal government, set vaccination requirements for children. Many have said they no longer follow vaccine recommendations from the federal government and instead follow those from the American Academy of Pediatrics and major medical organizations. They need to hold firm.
Today, Trump will sign an executive order proposing reducing childhood vaccines, and separating the MMR vaccine into 3 individual shots.

This reckless move will decrease vaccine uptake further at a time where measles cases are at a 35-year high, and the US is set to lose its measles elimination status. https://www.cnn.com/2026/08/10/politics/trump-vaccine-autism-rfk
