House Bill 1719 – Hepatitis B Childhood Vaccines

This legislation to remove the Hepatitis B vaccine from New Hampshire’s list of required childhood immunizations, was defeated earlier this year. But the bill’s language has resurfaced as an amendment to Senate Bill 625, and the matter is now headed to the Committee of Conference on Wednesday, May 27, 2026.

What can you do?

Contact the Committee Members below before May 27 and urge them to reject the Hepatitis B amendment to SB 625. When you reach out, consider sharing why this issue matters to you personally, whether as a parent, healthcare provider or a community member who wants to keep New Hampshire children healthy.
