On Tuesday, May 25th, the UCR School of Public Policy will hold a virtual debate on the question: “Should the federal government make COVID-19 vaccinations mandatory?”
Two teams of UC Riverside public policy students will be debating the pros and cons of mandatory COVID-19 vaccinations. The debaters include:
Joining the debaters are two guest judges who will provide feedback on the debate and the topic as a whole:
“Having the COVID-19 vaccine be mandatory on a federal level is a hot topic which many Americans have discussed,” said fourth year public policy student Andrea Rayas. “I am excited to hear the arguments my peers have prepared for this topic.”
This event is open to the general public. Attendees must register to attend. Registrants will receive an email in advance of the event with a link to join.
