Summary
The Defending Freedom of Conscience for Cadets and Midshipmen Act of 2022 would prohibit federal service academies, such as West Point or the U.S. Naval Academy, from requiring students to receive a COVID-19 vaccination as a condition for graduation. Under this bill, cadets and midshipmen could not be dismissed from their respective academies solely for refusing the vaccine. Additionally, the legislation ensures that students who do not fulfill their service agreements due to vaccine refusal would not be required to repay the costs of their education or any bonuses received.
