80 Republicans have joined with Democrats to pass alarming new legislation that would fund a federal vaccination database, according to Fox News’ Todd Starnes.

This bill, known as the Immunization Infrastructure Modernization Act, provides $400 million in taxpayer dollars to fund “immunization system data modernization and expansion.” The bill is also called H. R. 550.

This new system would supposedly be a “confidential” computerized database. This data can be shared with the federal government by expanding the capabilities of the CDC.

The government would hold records of immunization doses administered by any health care provider to persons within the geographic area covered by that database.

The bill is sponsored by Democrat Rep. Ann Kuster of New Hampshire.

Kuster explains the system would be used to “remind patients when they are due for a recommended vaccine.”

She also said the system will be able to identify areas with low vaccination rates to “ensure equitable distribution of vaccines.”

Four Republicans joined Kuster as co-sponsors. This includes Reps. Larry Bucshon (R-IN), James Baird (R-IN), David McKinley (R-WV), and Brian Fitzpatrick (R-PA).

All Democrats supported the bill. 130 Republicans voted “no” in opposition to the bill.

Not one Democrat voted in opposition to the bill.

Rep. Mary Miller argues that the legislation would enable the federal government to “track” unvaccinated Americans.

These Americans “will be targeted and forced to comply with Biden’s crazy ‘global vaccination’ vision,” Miller says.

“These systems are designed to allow for the sharing of crucial information and maintenance of records. Do we really trust the government to protect our medical records?” Miller said.

“The bill’s author even bragged in her press release that these systems will help the government remind patients when they are due for a recommended vaccine and identify areas with low vaccination rates to ensure equitable distribution of vaccines,” Miller said.

“This was clearly a legislative tool to enforce vaccine mandates and force their Orwellian rules onto those who do not comply.”
