A Republican congressman who has proposed a bill to block federal funding of the U.S. military vaccine mandate hosted a conference call with troops who warn the mandate could harm military readiness.
The service members say many of their colleagues feel the same way but are not speaking out because of the possible consequences, Breitbart News reported.
Rep. Thomas Massie, R-Ky., has introduced HR 3860, which would prohibit "any requirement that a member of the Armed Forces receive a vaccination against COVID-19."
Last Wednesday, after the FDA's approval of Pfizer's vaccine, Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin ordered service leaders in a memo to "impose ambitious timelines for implementation…"

The military must be vaccinated so there aren’t any restrictions to move into parts of the US when they are directed to take action against US citizens.
Good. The Pfentagon seems to have its priorities out of order.
From Generals to Genitals — America’s Woke Military.
You forgot the sarcasm tag.
Few under 40 YO would benefit from the vax.
This is nothing but a huge transfer of tax revenue going directly to Pfizer.
Never mind that the Covid “vaccine” was approved in 7 months and it usually takes around 8-12 years.
Never mind that the vast majority of troops are young and healthy without comorbidities.
Never mind that mRNA has never been used for so many humans with zero long term studies on this “vaccine”.
Amen!
More turmoil in the military. Started with Clinton(gays). Carter pardoned draft evaders. Then you got people like Barbara Boxer wanting to excuse married military couples from deployment. These people can’t get enough of f-ing with the military because as their commander in chief they can’t fight back.
The Chinese Communist Party pretty much owns Pfizer.
They wouldn’t use the “vaccine” to eliminate our armed forces.

I guess I appreciate Massie’s effort but is this the best that they can do? Attempt to defund the shots?
How would you feel is it was your son or daughter facing this? How would you feel if your son or daughter already had covid and natural immunity?
This is one of the healthiest populations on the planet. Their survivability rate is nearly 100% and hardly any of them have gotten sick at all so far. They probably have significant natural immunity already.
Why should they have a vaccine that does not prevent either spread or contraction of the virus and take the irreversible step of exposure to known and uncertain side effects that include death?
How about a temporary restraining order until we can get some sensible thought into this subject?
I hear ya there. If I had the money to do that, I would have already filed a lawsuit in a federal court to do just that.
Prayers for those in the military.
