Three lawsuits with the potential for a class action suit have been filed on behalf of former United States Service Members. The Service Members, represented by attorneys Dale Saran, Andy Meyer, and Brandon Johnson, allege they were unjustly discharged or prevented from drilling, causing significant financial loss, as a result of the Biden administration’s vaccine mandate policies.

The lawsuits, which are currently in the U.S. Court of Federal Claims, could involve backpay claims totaling billions of dollars.

The lawsuits allege that 80,000 to 100,000 service members, including both active-duty personnel and reservists, were impacted by the Biden administration’s actions.

The claims also involve the repayment of enlistment bonuses, adding to the financial stakes.

According to the Military Backpay website, there are three lawsuits seeking back pay and other relief for those discharged for failing to comply with the DoD’s now-rescinded Covid-19 Vaccine Mandate. Bassen includes all former service members (except Coast Guard) who were on Title 10 active duty orders when discharged, Regular or Reserve (i.e. “federalized”). Botello includes all service members (except Coast Guard) on Title 32 Orders in the National Guard or Reserve (i.e. “non-federalized” or “Militia”) when discharged or moved to the “IRR.” Finally, the Harkins case includes all former members of the Coast Guard when discharged, Active or Reserve.

The Military Backpay website outlines the fact that since August 2021, up to 100,000 or more members of the Armed Services were wrongfully discharged, kicked off active-duty, forced into early retirement, involuntarily transferred to the inactive ready reserve, or were denied pay or retirement benefits due to Department of Defense’s (“DoD”) COVID-19 vaccine mandate and refusing to take unlicensed, experimental vaccines.

The website points out that this is "the greatest reduction in force since the end of the Cold War and likely the greatest self-inflicted threat to national security and military readiness in our Nation’s history."

USA, marks a significant moment in military legal history, raising questions about due process, financial responsibility, and the broader implications for the rights of U.S. service members.
