BREAKING: University of California Allows Religious Exemptions on the Heels of Two Successful ICAN-Backed Lawsuits
ICAN is pleased to announce that the University of California has changed its vaccination policy (applicable to all 295,000+ UC students) to add a religious exemption.
ICAN’s attorneys recently scored major wins in lawsuits brought against both UC Davis and UCLA for the UC system’s refusal to grant religious exemptions to students. As a result, the entire University of California (UC) school system has changed its vaccination policy to permit religious exemptions for all 295,000+ of its students!
In January and February 2024, ICAN’s attorneys—led by Aaron Siri, who also happens to be an alumnus of UC Berkeley Law School—filed two successful lawsuits on behalf of students at University of California, Davis (UC Davis) and University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA).
Both cases settled after a California court entered a temporary restraining order mandating UC to allow one of the students to register, holding: “There is nothing in the record to suggest the religious exemption sought here poses a greater risk to [UC] Davis’s interests than the secular exemptions it already allows.”
On the heels of that win, ICAN’s attorneys threatened to bring more of these cases.
Now, ICAN is pleased to announce that, as of July 23, 2024 , the University of California has changed its vaccination policy ( applicable to all 295,000+ UC students ) to add a religious exemption.
This policy change comes just over two weeks after the attorneys who regularly represent ICAN obtained settlements in both cases. This shows again the direct, real-world impact your support produces. Thank you for making this possible.

A step in the right direction, too bad so many have had to die or be maimed thus far. The power dynamic is still absolutely backwards, in terms of poisoning the masses, you have to file forms to opt out. And not all exemption submissions will likely be granted, also a travesty. And more will still die from injected poisons.
Now if they would do this for all the rest the states. PTL!
