Former President Donald Trump has announced plans to reinstate 8,400 service members who were discharged for refusing to comply with COVID-19 vaccine mandates.

The announcement follows confirmation from the White House that Trump will sign an executive order aimed at restoring the rank and compensation of these service members.
