Actor Jim Carrey is blasting away at California Gov. Jerry Brown to his 14 million Twitter followers, angry at new state legislation that requires all children in public schools to be vaccinated starting in 2016, according to
The Hollywood Reporter.
Brown signed the contentious legislation just one day after California lawmakers sent him the bill, The Hollywood Reporter said.
Carrey, who was once in a relationship with Jenny McCarthy, the public face of the anti-vaccination movement, on Wednesday called the governor a "corporate fascist" who "must be stopped" after wasting no time to impose a bill with one of the
strictest school vaccination laws in the country.
Tweeted Carrey:
According to
Time, Carrey insists that he is not "anti-vaccine" but rather opposed to the ingredients they can contain, like mercury and thimerosal, and the harm they pose to children. Carrey also says there is a link between vaccines and autism.
