Todd Rokita, the attorney general of Indiana, has ruled that Indiana University may not require students, faculty members and other employees at the university's campuses to demonstrate that they have been vaccinated against COVID-19.
The requirement of proof violates a new state law against any unit of state government requiring an "immunization passport," Rokita said.
However, the new law does not ban Indiana University from requiring vaccination, he said.
The new law "only prohibits public universities from requiring proof of the COVID-19 vaccine; it does not prohibit them from requiring the vaccination itself," Rokita said.
