President Donald Trump is set to reinstate more than 8,000 service members who were discharged from the military for refusing to take the experimental COVID-19 mRNA injection.
Trump will reportedly sign an executive order Monday directing Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth to reinstate the service members wrongfully discharged by the Biden administration and grant them full back pay, benefits and rank.
“The Executive Order directs the Secretary of Defense to reinstate all members of the military (active and reserve) who were discharged for refusing the COVID vaccine and who request to be reinstated,” according to the White House fact sheet.

“From 2021 to 2023, the Biden Administration and former Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin discharged over 8,000 troops solely due to their COVID-19 vaccination status,” the fact sheet notes.
“After the vaccine mandate was repealed in 2023, only 43 of the more than the 8,000 troops dismissed elected to return to service under the Biden Administration and Secretary Austin.”
During his inauguration speech last week, Trump declared his intent to reverse the Biden regime’s “unjust” order washing out service members who refused the jab.
“This week I will reinstate any service members who were unjustly expelled from our military for objecting to the COVID vaccine mandate, with full back pay,” the president said.
The Pentagon under Joe Biden had required all service members to receive the COVID-19 injection under threat of pay docking, forbidding members to train with their units, and discharges.
“It is a lawful order,” former Pentagon Press Secretary John Kirby said in 2021 regarding the vaccine mandate. “It is a valid military requirement to get the vaccine. And it does apply, as we’ve said before, to members of the National Guard.”
Separately, Trump will also sign executive orders banning “transgender” service members and eliminating Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) programs from the military.
