Now that all combat roles have been officially opened to women, the courts will decided whether or not women should be required to sign up for the draft.

The suit was filed by the National Coalition for Men, an organization that advocates for male rights. After the ban barring women from combat positions was lifted in 2013, the NCFM filed suit against the Selective Service System in order to open the draft up to women as well. The original case was dismissed in 2013 because it was not “ripe” for litigating. Basically, the NCFM had to wait until women were allowed in ALL combat roles.

Welp, that day is here. The NCFM, which has waited for two years to mark this issue as their hill to die upon, will start the process of appealing its suit on Dec. 8 before the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals in Pasadena, California.

When Defense Secretary Ash Carter announced his momentous decision to open all combat jobs to women, he briefly remarked that opening the draft was out of his hands.

“That is a matter of legal dispute right now, and in fact litigation,” Carter said.

Carter isn’t the only one pushing the issue off on “the law.” Earlier this year, a teenage girl filed a lawsuit challenging the Selective Service System after she discovered that she wasn’t allowed to volunteer for the draft through any means. At the time, Selective Service officials stated that the issues was also out of their hands, too.

“We’re not opposed to women registering,” Pat Schuback, public affairs specialist for the Selective Service System, said at the time. “We just follow the law.” That pesky law!

We’ll keep an eye out on how National Coalition for Men vs. Selective Service System develops in the coming months. Who knows, maybe the draft will be opened to women.

In addition to the draft, the National Coalition for Men has also made recent headlines for opposing the discrimination against male refugees.
