The legislative bill SF No 698 introduced in Minnesota aims to prohibit any local government entity or their representatives from enforcing federal mandates related to vaccine passports within the state. This includes any form of enforcement derived from federal acts, laws, executive orders, or regulations that would require the use of vaccine passes, passports, or credentials. The bill is designed to uphold states' rights as guaranteed by the Tenth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, intended to protect individual privacy and freedom against federal overreach.

Moreover, the bill also establishes that any government entity or personnel that tries to enforce such federal mandates on vaccine passports can be sued by individuals affected by such actions. Successful plaintiffs in these lawsuits are entitled to have their attorney fees and other costs covered. The bill specifically states that governmental immunity (sovereign, official, or qualified) cannot be used as a defense in these lawsuits.
