RFK Jr. First Month

A vial of the measles, mumps and rubella vaccine is on display at the Lubbock Health Department on Feb. 26, 2025, in Lubbock, Texas.

One thing President Donald Trump learned from his first term in office was that he had to act quickly in his second term to move his agenda forward. And he did. West Virginia Gov. Patrick Morrisey took the same approach, and now one of his executive orders probably will be reviewed by the state Supreme Court.

On Friday, May 23, the American Civil Liberties Union of West Virginia and Mountain State Justice filed a lawsuit in Kanawha County Circuit Court on behalf of two parents seeking a court to stop state education officials from enforcing MorriseyƵs executive order allowing religious exemptions of vaccination requirements to attend public schools.
