Military officials with the U.S. Navy are punishing Navy SEALs and other Naval service members for seeking religious exemptions to a COVID-19 vaccine mandate in violation of a court order, according to attorneys for the service members.
Attorneys for First Liberty Institute filed a motion Monday requesting a federal court to set a hearing and order the U.S. Navy to show why it should not be in held in contempt of the court.
In early January, U.S. District Judge Reed O’Connor of the Northern District of Texas signed an injunction order after hearing testimony from several Navy SEALs and other Navy service members in December as part of the group’s lawsuit. The lawsuit included 35 Navy SEALs and Naval service members.
The suit is against President Joe Biden, the Department of Defense, Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin and Secretary of the Navy Carlos Del Toro.
