Time to end Feres!
'We can think of no other judicially created doctrine which has been criticized so stridently, by so many jurists, for so long.' "
"(But) Unless and until the Supreme Court overturns Feres, we remain bound by (it)."

“Right now, I am being deprived of my rights as a U.S. citizen. An inmate can sue for medical malpractice, but as a member of our military, I cannot.” @dallis_warshaw @CenterForLaw@rachelv12 https://t.co/dkWA4OB93X
In a setback for the U.S. military's efforts to reduce sexual assault in the military, a new Pentagon survey obtained by ABC News shows the number of sexual assaults increased in 2018 to 20,500. https://t.co/myHUfxkXMN
“It's a total bad faith argument” Dwight Stirling of @centerforlaw told @taskandpurpose “The majority of patients can already sue. More than three-fourths of them can already sue, well then, shouldn't [DoD] be practicing defensive medicine at the present time?”
For SFC Stayskal, Air Force Veteran Lipe, Alexis Witt and so many more I am proud to introduce a bipartisan bill to reform the #FERESDOCTRINE. It's time that servicemembers and their families receive justice and for greater accountability in our military. https://t.co/jL8cpbZ16e
During the hearing, Dwight Stirling, a former military attorney and CEO of @CenterForLaw, called the Feres doctrine “the most spurious, discredited legal doctrine in our history." @RepSpeier @dallis_warshaw https://t.co/2Z7tgQ08pW
Thank you @eldwighto40 for the straight talk in today's Congressional testimony. "The thought that allowing a suit between doctor and patient (in the military) would affect good order and discipline is ridiculous." We must support @RepSpeier legislation to reform Feres Doctrine.
@DoLesbiansTip That’s a fantastic point, which was mentioned by @RepSpeier at the hearings today. You should check out our blog for numerous Feres articles: https://t.co/OxxZxKNshE
