To amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to provide that the vaccine excise tax shall apply to any vaccine against hepatitis A.

This bill would add the Hepatitis A vaccine to the list of vaccines subject to a federal excise tax, which is typically 75 cents per dose. The revenue from this tax is used to fund the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program, a federal system that provides financial assistance to individuals who experience rare but serious medical complications from vaccinations. By including Hepatitis A in this program, the bill ensures that patients have a streamlined legal path to seek compensation for injuries without having to go through traditional, more costly court litigation.
