Warren Mayor Muriel Bowser and other Washington, D.C. officials are being sued over a law that allows children as young as 11 to receive the COVID-19 vaccination without the consent of their parents. Parents are pushing back on the Minor Consent to Vaccinations Amendment Act, filing lawsuits in the hopes that the law will be ruled unconstitutional. The D.C. Council voted 12-1 in October to approve the measure that allows minors aged 11 and up to determine if they should get vaccinated in the event that a doctor finds they are capable of informed consent.
