The U.S. National Commission on Military, National, and Public Service is accepting comments until September 30th.
Here are some ideas for useful comments you might make in your own words:
End required selective service (draft) registration for men.
Do not begin requiring that women register.
If not ended, allow the choice of registering as a conscientious objector.
If there must be non-military service, make sure that its pay and benefits are at least equal to those of military "service." https://inspire2serve.gov/content/share-your-thoughts?link_id=1&can_id=191b4b2360941c083e82b375f82bbd2b&source=email-abolish-us-selective-service-draft-registration&email_referrer=email_409527&email_subject=abolish-us-selective-service-draft-registration Here's what I submitted on line: "I don't know how on Earth anyone thinks they're going to pull this one on us; remember that those of us who were draft counselors in the '60's are now old enough to own land in Canada. Besides that, you no longer have a huge number of naive teenagers who will believe the nonsense that they're going to be defending democracy. They'd be fighting to steal wealth-making resources so the greed-heads don't have to hire their own mercenaries, and they know that."
