A bill to repeal the Military Selective Service Act.
S 4881 repeals the requirement for men to register for potential military conscription under the Military Selective Service Act. It transfers the Selective Service System's assets and records to the General Services Administration and prohibits federal or state penalties for failing to register before repeal. The bill ensures past non-registration won't affect eligibility for federal benefits, jobs, or moral character assessments. It also preserves existing protections for conscientious objectors under current law.
