House Bill No. [insert number] introduces the "Louisiana Medical Freedom Act," which aims to protect individuals' rights regarding medical interventions, including vaccinations. The bill establishes that individuals have the right to refuse any medical intervention for themselves or their dependents without interference. It prohibits state, local, or business entities from requiring medical interventions as a condition for employment, access to public services, or entry into public spaces. Additionally, it ensures that individuals cannot be discriminated against or penalized based on their medical intervention status, including the refusal to wear face masks or other facial coverings.

The legislation also outlines definitions for key terms such as "business entity" and "medical intervention." It specifies that violations of the act will result in statutory damages of at least $5,000 per infraction, along with the possibility for the prevailing party in legal actions to recover reasonable expenses. Exceptions to the mask-wearing prohibition are included for healthcare providers and entities that require such coverings for safety compliance. Overall, the bill seeks to prevent discrimination based on medical choices and to uphold individual rights in the context of public health measures.
