Summary

The bill rewrites state law so cities can take steps to promote health or stop disease only if those steps do not violate constitutional freedoms such as religion, speech, press, assembly, petition, or the right to bear arms. It applies to any ordinance or resolution a municipality adopts, unless martial law has been declared. The change is meant to balance local health authority with individual rights.
