Abstract<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Why have states rolled back vaccine exemptions?  In what ways can states limit vaccine exemptions?  With a Summer Faculty Grant, I created a 50-state database on MMR vaccine exemptions and examined state vaccine exemption legislation across all 50 states.  I will be discussing some of my initial findings as well as my research process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kelly B. Smith<\/strong> received her PhD from Brown University in 2017.  Her scholarship examines state politics and policymaking as well as bureaucratic politics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
