Episode Details

Unlike 45 other states and unlike Russia and China, West Virginia has no choice but to vaccinate children in order to attend school. The Governor and the state Senate agree there should be religious exemptions for the vaccine schedule. However, thanks to Geno Chiarelli and 11 other GOP Delegates the WV House denied families the right to claim a religious exemption. What do these Republicans have against medical freedom? And why are they trampling on families' religious rights? Sawyer Dennison is challenging 2-term incumbent Chiarelli in the District 78 Republican Primary in May 2026. Hear his views in this episode.
