Fort Benning, GA - Liberty Counsel has issued a letter to Fort Benning Army Base commanding officers requesting them to comply with the Religious Freedom Restoration Act (RFRA) and the Department of Defense (DOD) Instruction which provides Army personnel religious accommodation and exemption from so-called "transgender" directives which violate their sincerely held religious beliefs and conscience.
The letter states that RFRA and DOD Instruction requires the Army to provide religious accommodation and exemption from compliance with "transgender directives" which violate rights of conscience or religious beliefs, when such exemption has no effect on the accomplishment of the Army's actual mission.
