A mid-June report is making its way into the hands of U.S. Representatives and Senators. Titled the Congressional Survey of Accountability, Truth, and Freedom (ATAF), nearly 600 service members are making a grassroots effort to fight back against what they allege to be discriminatory treatment they’ve received by the Department of Defense for refusing to abide by its vaccine mandate.

The final page of the 12-page report (pdf) includes links to enclosures with over 60 pages of testimony from various members of the Air Force, Army, Marine Corps, Navy, Space Force, National Guard, and Coast Guard.
