Died when the session ended The 2026 session adjourned on May 3, 2026, the General Assembly’s last regular session. Bills that didn’t pass both chambers died. What’s a funnel?

What’s in it

AI summary When medical examiners investigate the deaths of infants up to three years old, they must now ask for information about the child's last vaccinations. This request must include the date and the specific types of shots the child received. The state medical examiner will create new rules to make sure this information is collected.1

Read the official explanation

This bill requires the report used by medical examiners for investigations of infants zero to three years of age shall include a request for information regarding the date and type of the decedent’s last immunization. If the decedent received more than one immunization at the time of the last immunization, the information provided shall include all immunizations received. The bill requires the state medical examiner to adopt rules to comply with the bill.
