This panel looks at whether women should be required to register for military draft and whether they should serve in combat rolls. The National Commission on military, national and Public Service hosted this event. Good morning, and welcome to the third public hearing on Selective Service on military, national and Public Service. The purpose of this hearing is to address an important question, should Selective Service registration be expanded to include all americans. In 2016, the commission was created amid a debate over whether the requirement for Selective Service registration should be extended to women after military combat roles were open to women in 2015. Congress charged us to answer two very important questions. First, does our country have a continuing need for a military selective system. If so, whether the Current System requires modifications. Second, how can we as a nation create an ethos of s
