Introduced·5/14/26

Repeals the Military Selective Service Act and ensures no penalties for non-registration.

The bill repeals the Military Selective Service Act, which requires male citizens to register for potential military conscription. It ensures that failure to register under the Act will not result in denial of federal benefits or employment. The assets and records of the Selective Service System will be transferred to other agencies, and the system will not be reestablished. The rights of conscientious objectors remain protected.
