The National Commission on Military, National, and Public Service will be holding two hearings on February 21, 2019, on “universal service.”
Take this opportunity to make your voice heard.
NO FORCED NATIONAL SERVICE!
PLEASE GIVE CONGRESS A PIECE OF YOUR MIND!

One sentence saying, “No to compulsory service!” is a big help, or feel free to post up to 3,000 characters (about 500 words).
Key Points:
- Politicians have no right to take a year of every young person’s life. Our kids have better things to do, college, career, their own lives to live.
- This will be an enormously wasteful program, squandering young people’s time and everyone’s tax money on make-work government projects.
- It is one thing to offer people opportunities to serve their fellow Americans, but something else altogether to force people into government service against their will.
