What this bill would do

This bill is officially called the Family Vaccine Protection Act. It amends the Public Health Service Act to officially set up and codify the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices. The bill outlines the committee's duties, membership requirements, and how it must give advice and recommendations regarding vaccines to the public and federal officials. It requires the committee to review scientific evidence and consider new vaccines within strict timelines. It also requires specific reporting to Congress if the government goes against the committee's recommendations. Finally, the bill changes the rules for the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program to require that changes to the Vaccine Injury Table are based on solid scientific evidence.
