Michael Dublin Opposes H.R. 8070
For Immediate Release:
June 20, 2024
Garner, NC (June 20, 2024) - Michael Dublin, NCGP Candidate for US House of Representatives for NC Congressional District 2, strongly opposes the recent House passage of legislation to automatically register all males ages 18-26 for potential military conscription through the Selective Service System. This is truly a nightmare!
The Democratic Amendment to H.R. 8070, the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), Section 531. Selective Service System: Automatic Registration. SEC. 3. (a)(1) states, “Except as otherwise provided in this title, every male citizen of the United States, and every other male person residing in the United States, between the ages of eighteen and twenty-six, shall be automatically registered under this Act by the Director of the Selective Service System.” Honestly, Is it 2024 or 1964?
Y’all, this kind of nightmarish nonsense is the reason I’m running for office in the first place. Why would I leave the classroom after over two decades of helping young people grow up? So that I don’t have to see more of them becoming fodder for the US Imperial War Machine! Please donate your time and money to help me stand against this openly wanton agenda of the two corporate war parties that do not give a damn about our children or our future! Trust me: A vote for me is a vote for peace!

Green Party Condemns Reinstatement of Draft, Demands Repeal of Authorization of Use of Military Force
WASHINGTON, D.C. (June 19, 2024) - The U.S. Green Party condemns the recent House passage of legislation to automatically register all males ages 18-26 for potential military conscription through the Selective Service System.
The Democratic Amendment to H.R. 8070, the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), Section 531. Selective Service System: Automatic Registration. SEC. 3. (a)(1) states, “Except as otherwise provided in this title, every male citizen of the United States, and every other male person residing in the United States, between the ages of eighteen and twenty-six, shall be automatically registered under this Act by the Director of the Selective Service System.”

“The U.S. has been in a continuous 'State of Emergency' since the passage of the Authorization for Use of Military Force (AUMF) in 2001, which provides a president with over 100 powers he would not ordinarily have,” said Margaret Elisabeth, member of the Green Party of Washington State, a Co-chair of the Green Party of the U.S., and a veteran of the U.S. military. “ In passing the AUMF, Congress abdicated its exclusive authority under the Constitution to declare war, and betrayed its responsibility to the American people by delegating to the president – one person – virtually dictatorial power to commit acts of war whenever he or she chooses. Greens demand repeal of the AUMF and oppose any other measure purporting to 'authorize' preemptive or illegal military action.”
“Our platform alternatively calls for new opportunities for citizens to serve their communities through non-military community service” said Craig Cayetano, member of the Green Party of New Jersey, and a Co-chair of the Green party of the U.S. “Alternative community service to the military should be encouraged.”
The Green Party calls on the U.S. Senate to reject this unconscionable draft registration scheme. Peaceful conflict resolution through diplomacy and adherence to human rights must be our nation's security priorities.
