Jessica Biel drew backlash after lobbying alongside Robert F. Kennedy Jr. against California’s SB 276. Though she denied opposing vaccines publicly, reports alleged she delayed her child’s shots.
Rob Schneider opposed school vaccine requirements, promoting the debunked claim linking vaccines and autism. He framed mandates as government overreach.
