The Laws of Texas give the Governor, as the head of the Executive Branch, the power to regulate the Medical Board and the Department of State Health Services. The Legislature has passed law as recently as 2003 that allows the Department and Board to add vaccines as they deem them necessary.
The Governor's language is strong in promoting parental right to opt out and orders the Department to make the opt out provision available on the Internet. Currently, parents have to make a request in writing for an affadavit, which has to be notarized and then delivered to the Department - eventually the Department mails the exemption to the parent. (Can you imagine? There's no way we could have ever gotten the parental consent forms this complicated or the process so convoluted.) The Governor's language would make the process easier.
The Legislators shouldn't cry that the Governor is trying to bypass them, when he is practicing his legal function as head of the Executive Branch.
