Bio
In 2015, modeling legislation from California, a Texas legislator filed an oppressive vaccine Mandate bill for school age children that would strip parents of their freedom to informed consent and vaccine choice for their children. Mother of three, Jackie Schlegel quickly acted and organized other passionate moms to make their voices heard. Through grassroots activism that group under the leadership of Jackie, successfully defeated the vaccine mandate bill and 15 other bills filed that would have infringed on the rights of Texans to informed consent, medical privacy and Vaccine Choice. For the last 6 years, Jackie has become one of the states most influential advocates for medical freedom, drawing national attention for her political efforts that include unseating the representative responsible for the attempts that started the wave of vaccine mandate legislation in Texas. In 2021 Jackie led the efforts to advance parental rights with a parental medical protections bill and the efforts to BAN vaccine passports. Thanks to Jackie’s endless energy and passion, the medical freedom community has gained recognizable momentum into our communities and state legislature. Her unshakable determination inspires us all in the fight for informed consent, medical privacy, and vaccine freedom of choice.

Bio
J. Aaron Gruben grew up in the Southwest and currently lives in Texas with his wife and six children, where he works full time as a veterinarian. A veritable Renaissance man, he is the author of works of varied genres. His books cover a vast diversity of subjects and often highlight historical topics that have become either distorted by political or social bias or have been forgotten by today’s general public. When he is not writing or repairing sick animals, Aaron enjoys reading, hiking, dancing with toddlers, and playing a variety of musical instruments. He also travels to conventions with his publishing company, Post Tenebras Lux Books, which strives to improve lives and revitalize old truths through quality Christian stories and studies. Christ brought Aaron into his camp at the age of 9, and his relationship with his beloved Savior has been the center of his life ever since.
