On February 14, 2006, Congressman Charles
Rangel (Democrat - NY) introduced a bill (Universal National Service Act
of 2006 - HR 4752 IH) aiming at drafting everyone - men and women alike
- from the ages of 18 to 42 into the military for a minimum period of
2 years.
Or to quote the bill: "To provide
for the common defense by requiring all persons in the United States, including
women, between the ages of 18 and 42 to perform a period of military service
or a period of civilian service in furtherance of the national defense
and homeland security, and for other purposes."
The House is to convene on June 6 (06/06/06]
to debate and possibly adopt this bill, that is, unless a vast public outcry
succeeds in derailing this insanity, which you can do by writing a letter
of protest to your congress person through
