Fiscal Year 2025’s National Defense Authorization Act’s Senate version contains an important item that is being ignored—young women between the ages of 18-26 will be automatically registered for the draft.

Previously, the House version of the NDAA passed (217-199) on June 14 and provisioned for the automatic registration of 18-26 year old men for the draft, but there was no item extending the order to women.

As it stands, all men of age are legally required to register for the draft when they turn 18, and most states automatically register them upon getting a driver’s permit, license, renewal of the same, or state ID. Many states also tie registration to access to state largess such as student loans under legislation mirroring the federal Solomon Amendment, or state jobs, similar to the federal Thurmond Amendment.
