"In every single spending fight, of which there will be numerous ones … the vaccine mandate … will become a central issue of negotiation," House Freedom Caucus Chair Scott Perry, R-Pa., told Fox News Digital.
Perry said he believes the military vaccine mandate is a "national security" issue, due to declining recruitment. He criticized the Defense Department for allegedly not handling religious exemption requests in good faith.
