WASHINGTON, D.C. — The Senate’s version of the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) includes a provision that would require women to register for Selective Service, marking a significant potential change in military policy.
On page three of the NDAA, under the heading of “Strengthening the Joint Force and Defense Workforce,” the Military Selective Service Act would be amended to require the registration of women for Selective Service.
While some lawmakers oppose the measure, others argue it would benefit the government. Senator Josh Hawley (R-MO) voiced his concerns during a committee meeting.
“I just think it’s wrong to say to women, ‘We’re going to involuntarily put you in the military.’ If they want to join voluntarily, that’s fantastic,” he said. “My sister proudly served in the United States Navy. There are so many women in the armed forces doing terrific work. Women have been part of the military since its founding, and that’s awesome. But that’s not what we’re talking about. They’re talking about drafting women involuntarily, and I’m totally opposed to that. I’m also worried about the expansion of the draft.”
In contrast, Congresswoman Chrissy Houlahan (D-PA) supports the amendment.
“This amendment would purely cut the government red tape that exists and allow an important government office to be more efficient and save money for more American taxpayers,” she said.
The NDAA also includes a 4.5% raise for military members and a 2% raise for Department of Defense civilian workers.
Former first son Donald Trump Jr. criticized the move, stating, “Democrats want to draft your daughters to fight the wars that no one in America outside of the military industrial complex wants to be in.”

And even if you are one of those who naively believe our soldiers would -never- rape their own, there are two other problems.
One, any enemy we could face has no such limits and they rape every female captured.
Two, the environment in the military is a very sexually charged environment. Starting off with the lesbians club in boot camp, to the endless banter and loneliness of deployment.
It’s a horrible idea to put you women there.
Nope. No threat. We have nuclear weapons and cannot be invaded by another military. We do not need a slave army to protect us, and certainly not a female slave army.
They are not raising this army to protect America. They are raising it for their foreign adventures for money and meddling.
You don’t start off to kill the does. That’s the next generation. Women serve by passing along the culture and building families.
If they really start to draft people (with or without women), they will have some serious non-compliance to deal with to say the least.
We're not talking about desperate defense of homeland like Russia in WWII or Israel, where they drafted women.
It's all (in effect) colonial policy enforcement at best, if not war for war sake to make money for the bosses. And a lot more people understand that.
And even for the men, who will fight for this country when they have been indoctrinated since kindergarten that is it not to be theirs in the future? Didn't have that even for Vietnam.
That must be a happy place for you, we are eternally safe and no longer need a military except for the nukes and no one could figure out how to make that work for them and against us during the upcoming years and decades.
That attitude is what got us to where a large segment of the female population is devoid of accountability and openly despise you for your sacrifices. That attitude gave us Jane Fonda, and if not for President Trump, would have put Hillary Clinton in the Presidency - the same Hillary Clinton who unflinchingly stated "Women have always been the primary victims of war." The utter gall of that corrupt hag to spit on the million-plus male soldiers who died in a U.S. military uniform.
Hillary Clinton is not alone among women who believe that the deaths and injuries of men in combat is irrelevant to them. You need to get your head out of the sand if you refuse to see that. Such women look at men as completely disposable - and men playing the "man card" game reinforce it. Instead of being a simp to women who vote to enable illegal aliens to invade the country that men are supposed to be drafted to defend, let women go to war.
Chris Rock, a comedian, got it right when he stated "Only women, children, and dogs are loved unconditionally. A man is only loved under the condition that he provide something." Well, men are no longer playing that game. What do women bring to the table that makes them worth exempting them from the consequences that they brought on?
Your thinking is a wee bit sideways: the Ukes didn’t invade Russia - the Russkies sent their Combined Arms Armies to kill them, right?
You segued away from the main point: men fight, ladies don’t. The Freeper Draft Dodger wing loves to chime in about drafting women (instead of them).
Gutless.
Yeah, you are right. We should create a massive slave army, and we should include 18 year old girls. How on earth have we survived most of this nation’s years without involuntary soldiers? LOL
These Congresspukes want to draft people to fight wars overseas at the direction of globalists who control our blackmailed politicians, instead of defending the border and rounding up illegal alien invaders that these same Congresspukes are aiding and abetting in that invasion.
“I made it a point to hump the 81 mm baseplate”
That is basic leadership techniques right there! Joe saw that and you gained a lot of credibility. Kinda the way I did things...
Its too much trouble trying to keep up with your meanderings.
Gosh, you’re an idiot. Never served, have you - and certainly not in combat. I have and it’s no place for women.
Get some testosterone shots or something.
It’s called equality.
Get used to it !!!
Like in starship troopers...
Serve your time, get to vote.
Roughnecks Arrrrrrgh!!!
If they need large numbers of soldiers, fire all our current generals and admirals, no women in anything besides admin and hospital medical, no women officers, end the woke and homo crap (no more red high heel marches).
Allow lewd nose art again, and leave them alone on liberty call in foreign ports. Stop with the pointless idiotic foreign adventures. Run the USAF like SAC and TAC. Fun the fleet like Halsey and Nimitz and King. Run the Army like it was in the Fulda Gap days. Let em have fun in Germany with the women and beer.
In short, make it macho and tough and fun again. You’ll have all the volunteers you need.
Yes it is a bad idea!
You’re kidding, right?
Those are some seriously unsat rounds in that photo. I would never let my troops use those things.
There's numerous court cases that see it differently including Arver v. United States, 245 U.S. 366 (1918).
All Americans are expendable for the NeoCon psychopaths ruling the former USA.
