You had better for Trump’s sake. I think Trump can find a way out of this bill at a later date.

By using available federal databases, the [Selective Service] agency will be able to register all of the individuals required and thus help ensure that any future military draft is fair and equitable,” Houlahan said during debate last month, according to Defense News.”

Doesn't this give you a warm, fuzzy feeling?

… every male citizen of the United States, and every other male person residing in the United States.

Start with the illegal aliens first, there are millions of them. Deport them all as troops to the Ukrainian front lines. Once news gets around, there won’t be so many illegals crossing the border with Mexico, unless it is to travel south.

The last draft was for Vietnam. Ukraine may be the next.

Mandatory draft registration has been in place for decades...this is just a reauthorization bill because the past bill is close to sunsetting. Only thing new is the automatic registration part.

Republicans work for something other than Americans. What is obvious at this point.

Their priorities are something to be desired. It’s like they are purposely trying to lose in November.

Yes, I am old enough to have lived through being included in the draft, and even somewhat disappointed that a got a draft number of 364. Even if I was in no rush to enter the military. I was patriotic enough to accept the possibility. Almost joined, but my desired MO was closed. So, I took off to see my country. 🙂👍

So Come on mothers don’t be vain
send your boys to Ukraine
Come on fathers don’t hesitate,
Send your son off before it’s to late
be the first one on your block to have your boy come home in a box.

The really bad part is the guarantee to provide Ukraine with yearly amounts in the billions. Shameful in my opinion. The military is needed, but volunteers seems to work best. Problem is no one wants to serve under Joe Biden reign of terror to the military personnel.

Wait… registering with the selective service was optional?!

I don’t think it ever was.

The more females in the military the weaker we become, lets hope we can keep the left from drafting them.

Going back in time a few years. I was born in 1940 and each
male citizen was required to register with the county/parish
office on or before his 18th birthday. You were elgibal for
the USA Military draft. You could get deferments if in college,
married, etc.

I graduated HS, 1958, College 1962 and went thru the military
draft procedure in Nov., 1963. Served two years in the USA
Military Police Detachment in NYC. Enjoyed every minute of it.
But in NYC if you were in the military you could get free passes
to just about any sporting event, broad way shows, etc. Our unit
was also on call for Military functions as part of the NYC activities
such as parades, sporting events, honors for dignitaries . Wasn't bad
at all.

Exactly. Long overdue for a discrimination lawsuit.

Recruitment and retention are lagging. The woke military can’t survive being voluntary. At some point,there will be conscription.
