The bill amends Section 381.00322 of the Florida Statutes, specifically addressing the authority of governmental entities and educational institutions regarding the adoption and enforcement of international health organization policies. The bill repeals the provision that previously allowed these entities to implement such policies based on rules or executive orders from the Governor. As a result, the amended law stipulates that these entities may only adopt, implement, or enforce international health organization public health policies or guidelines if explicitly authorized by state law.
The effective date for this act is set for July 1, 2025. This change aims to clarify the limitations on the authority of governmental and educational institutions in relation to international health policies, ensuring that any such actions are grounded in state law rather than executive orders or rules.
