Show Notes
Mandatory Military Registration: The House of Representatives has passed a defense bill requiring men aged eighteen to twenty-six to register for Selective Service, a move that reinstates a long-standing federal law, despite the absence of a draft for over fifty years. The registration is part of the National Defense Authorization Act, which outlines the governments military priorities. Failure to register is a felony, punishable by hefty fines and imprisonment. The system remains active for potential emergencies, with a lottery-based draft system in place. However, women and those with exemptions are not required to register, sparking debates amid talks of potential conflicts.
