The bill amends Section 381.00322 of the Florida Statutes to prohibit governmental entities and educational institutions from adopting, implementing, or enforcing public health policies or guidelines set forth by international health organizations. The amendment removes the previous provision that allowed such actions if authorized by state law, rule, or an executive order from the Governor.
As a result, the new law will create a blanket prohibition on the influence of international health organization policies in Florida, effective July 1, 2025. This change aims to ensure that local entities are not bound by external health guidelines without state authorization.
