Promised made, promises kept.
President Trump will sign an executive order to reinstate thousands of troops kicked out of the military by Joe Biden for refusing the Covid vaccine.
Trump vowed to reinstate the troops “unjustly expelled from our military for objecting to the Covid vaccine mandate” during his inauguration speech last week.
Approximately 8,000 troops were discharged because of Biden’s Covid vaccine mandate. Some troops sued over the mandate and faced backlash.
The troops will be reinstated with full back pay and benefits.
The New York Post reported:
President Trump is expected to sign an executive order on Monday to reinstate thousands of US service members who were discharged for refusing the COVID-19 vaccine, a White House official told The Post.
Trump, 78, is preparing to make good on a 2024 campaign promise by bringing back more than 8,000 members of the US military, restoring them to their previous rank and providing back pay and full benefits.
The order will cover active-duty or reserve service members who were kicked out for not taking the COVID jab mandated by the Biden administration between 2021 and 2023.
Just 43 of the roughly 8,000 removed returned to their service branch after the Biden administration scuppered the mandate, according to the White House.
