The U.S. Supreme Court will soon decide whether to accept the case of over 30 military chaplains challenging Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin’s implementation and enforcement of the now-rescinded COVID-19 vaccine mandate.
On April 26, the Supreme Court will confer behind closed doors about whether to take up a petition by 38 military chaplains to reinstate their case by vacating the Fourth Circuit’s dismissal of their constitutional and statutory claims arising from damages for requesting a religious exemption to the mandate. It may issue its decision as soon as April 29.
