    Selective Service

    The selective service says that all men at 18 MUST register, it doesn't say citizens but all. Now I don't want people that don't obey the law in the military but if we can get the government to enforce it, maybe we would have an influx of young men(illegal) leaving the country.
    What do you think?

    ¿Usted nació después de 1960? ¿Era usted 25 o más joven cuando usted entró en los Estados Unidos? Si usted es un hombre y sobre 18 le requieren colocarse con el Selective Service de los E.E.U.U.. Si los Estados Unidos llegan a estar implicados en una guerra entonces usted puede ser llamado para entrar los militares. Hay penas severas si usted no coloca su nombre con el sistema del Selective Service. Usted puede ser encarcelado por cinco años o $250.000 multados o ambos.

    This is a proposed notice that I would print up and handout at IA rallies and activities. I don't know if the US government will ever effectively enforce SSS law, but at least we could make the IA's think they would,

    I think during deportation hearings it should be checked to see if illegal immigrant males between the ages of 18 and 25 did register with selective service and if not, face those penalities also.

    All Selective Service, IRS, Social Security, criminal, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, etc. records should be available to compare with the others.

    Since Selective Service is for possible military purposes it should acertain the citizenship or alien status of those registering.

    ATTENTION, UNDOCUMENTED MALES
    & IMMIGRANT SERVICING GROUPS!

    If you are a man ages 18 through 25 and living in the U.S., then you must register with Selective Service. It’s the law. You can register at any U.S. Post Office and do not need a social security number. When you do obtain a social security number, let Selective Service know. Provide a copy of your new social security number card; being sure to include your complete name, date of birth, Selective Service registration number, and current mailing address; and mail to the Selective Service System, P.O. Box 94636, Palatine, IL 60094-4636.

    Be sure to register before your 26th birthday. After that, it’s too late!

    Selective Service does not collect any information which would indicate whether or not you are undocumented. You want to protect yourself for future U.S. citizenship and other government benefits and programs by registering with Selective Service. Do it today.

    Penalties for Failure to Register for the Draft

    Men who do not register could be prosecuted and, if convicted, fined up to $250,000 and/or serve up to five years in prison. In addition, men who fail to register with Selective Service before turning age 26, even if not prosecuted, will become ineligible for:


    Student Financial Aid - including Pell Grants, College Work Study, Guaranteed Student/Plus Loans, and National Direct Student Loans.

    U.S. Citizenship - if the man first arrived in the U.S. before his 26th birthday.

    Federal Job Training - The Job Training Partnership Act (JTPA) offers programs that can train young men for jobs in auto mechanics and other skills. This program is only open to those men who register with Selective Service.

    Federal Jobs - men born after December 31, 1959 must be registered to be eligible for jobs in the Executive Branch of the Federal government and the U.S. Postal Service.

    In addition, several states have added additional penalties for those who fail to register.

    State Laws--Selective Service Registration

    Some states don't allow a driver's license to a person not registered with Selective Service.

    STATE/COMMONWEALTH LEGISLATION Printer Friendly Version

    Many states have passed legislation that supports the federal Selective Service System registration requirement. Generally, these state laws require that a man be registered (or prove he is exempt from the requirement) before he can receive state student financial assistance or be eligible for state government jobs.

    Most of the state laws mirror, reinforce or strengthen two federal laws: The Solomon Amendment added Section 12 (f) to the Military Selective Service Act in September 1982. Male students who have a requirement to register with Selective Service must satisfy that requirement as an eligibility precondition for receipt of Title IV federal student financial aid. Title IV aid includes such need-based programs as Guaranteed Student Loans and Pell Grants. In November 1985, the Thurmond Amendment to the Defense Authorization Act established Title 5, U.S. Code, Section 3328, which requires Selective Service System registration (of men who are required to register) as a prerequisite for appointment to most federal jobs. The effect of these Amendments is twofold. They increase public awareness of the registration requirement and ensure that recipients of public funds are in compliance with federal law.

    Currently, 41 states, three territories and the District of Columbia have enacted what is often called "Solomon-like" or "Thurmond-like" legislation linking a man's eligibility for state-funded higher education benefits or state jobs to the federal registration requirement, and/or passed laws linking a man's application for a driver's license or I.D. card with Selective Service registration.

    Here is a listing of the laws and what they provide:

    Illegal aliens CAN register even without a Social Security number--it is assumed that they can or will obtain one later. You have to remember that the government would rather spend effort to get people to comply than spend effort to prosecute---- which only makes (fiscal) sense. Placing a link to the SSS will allow some to find out that they can still register even W/o the number. Or there may be no practical fear that they will be prosecuted by the federal government, anyway. Typically it doesn't do much. Plus you can bet that there would be a lot of discussion via the grapevine about whether the EEUU will actually do something to enforce the law---since it doesn't enforce a lot of the other laws anyway.

    I am just saying this is one more tool in the toolbox that we can use---state legislation will probably be the most practical approach. Nevertheless having a longer list of prosecutable offenses should make removal hearings easier to process. This has probably been a long- overlooked violation.

    I got this from the selective service website, so it is out there. We need to get it out everywhere, news and websites. It could be a valuable tool, maybe our government doesn't know that WE know.
