"Religious freedom is protected by the U.S. Constitution and federal law,” the Members of Congress wrote in their letter. “Despite these protections, information received by Committee Republicans indicates that the adjudication process for exemption applications was… designed to reach predetermined conclusions… We request a staff-level briefing to assist Committee on Oversight and Reform Republicans in understanding the Coast Guard’s implementation of a process which potentially deprived over 1,300 members of a fair adjudication of their exemption request.” | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-06T18:34:28Z |
