The COVID-19 pandemic may be in the rearview for many Americans, but state lawmakers are still working to stop businesses from enacting vaccine requirements for customers or their employees.The Utah House of Representatives on Monday passed a bill that would ban the use of vaccine passports — with some exceptions for health care and other industries — and prevent discrimination based on "immunity status." A nearly identical bill came close to passing both chambers of the Legislature last year, but lawmakers ran out of time to approve it on the last night of the session.
