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 issued by the Governor. As a result, the new language clarifies 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 bill is set for July 1, 2025. This change aims to tighten the control over public health policy implementation by ensuring that any adoption of international health guidelines is strictly governed by state law rather than executive orders or rules.
