Harassing Navy SEALs is Vindictive and Punitive
Navy SEALs are brave and fierce fighters who dedicate years of their lives, sacrificing themselves physically and mentally to serve our nation and defend our liberties. Collectively, our clients have more than 350 years of military service and more than 100 combat deployment.
Plus, it costs millions of taxpayer dollars in training—approximately $2 million per Navy SEAL—to prepare the most elite fighting force on the face of the earth.
With the vaccine mandate repealed, commanders now hold all power over deployments and vaccination status. This means that many of our brave warriors could face second-class status, lack deployments and get passed on for advancement if they have a commander who doesn’t respect their religious beliefs.
While the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit issued a disappointing opinion, in July of 2023, the Navy SEALs case is not over. The Court is sending the case back to the district court—and that means we have an opportunity to continue fighting.
