Senate Democrats Jon Tester (D-MT) and Jacky Rosen (D-NV) added language to the annual defense authorization bill requiring women to register for the draft."There shouldn’t be women in the draft. They shouldn’t be forced to serve if they don’t want to," said Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO) during an appearance on Fox News, calling the provision "insane."Hawley previously led efforts to strip language requiring women to register for the draft from the defense authorization bill in 2021 and 2022, The Hill reports.Meanwhile, Sen. Roger Wicker (R-MS), the top-ranking Republican on the Senate Armed Services Committee, has vowed to try and strip the language out of the bill."I’m opposed to that. I don’t think this is the time to get into a debate on the floor of either house about that. We’re not anywhere near implementing a draft, and to me it’s a distraction when we need to be talking about real issues that are immediate," he said, adding "I hope it will fall out, either on the floor or in conference."On Wednesday, conservative advocacy group Advancing American Freedom wrote a letter to Senate GOP leader Mitch McConnell (KY) and House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) which declared that "the notion of the United States of America requiring women to register to fight our wars is simply untenable and must be opposed at all costs."
