A republican candidate for senate, Rep Vicky Hartzler, introduced a bill to abolish draft registration for men and women.

The senator for Missouri is set to lead the effort to remove the provision requiring women to register for the Selective Service System.
The junior senator and constitutional lawyer, Josh Hawley said; “It is wrong to force our daughters, mothers, wives, and sisters to fight our wars. Our country is extremely grateful for the brave women who have volunteered to serve our country with and alongside our fighting forces.”
He added that “They have played a vital role in defending America at every point in our nation’s history. But volunteering for military service is not the same as being forced into it, and no woman should be compelled to do so.”
