It’s here – mandatory Universal National Service Act

I never believed I would see this in America but here it is. Right now, I’m so dumbfounded, I can’t possibly post. This is about my children. How can this be possible? And NO PRESS??? NO MEDIA coverage of this??? What kind of country has this become?

Thanks to Charlie Rangel for this.
