Original Note:
This is a misinterpretation. Project 2025 DOES NOT open up "the draft." While pages 102-103 do recommend the ASVAB in "schools that receive federal funding" (i.e., public schools), completion of the ASVAB DOES NOT order one to join the military (i.e., be "drafted"). https://static.project2025.org/2025_MandateForLeadership_FULL.pdf https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/project-2025-high-school-military-exam/#:~:text=However%2C%20as%20the%20military.com%20website%20underscored%2C%20one%20is%20not%20ever%20required%20to%20join%20the%20military%20after%20taking%20the%20ASVAB%20exam https://www.verifythis.com/article/news/verify/project-2025-verify/yes-project-2025-recommends-requiring-military-entrance-exams-for-public-high-school-students/536-6d799964-87b7-4cfc-9f1c-4925ab4dc22d#:~:text=People%20who%20take%20the%20ASVAB%20exam%20aren%E2%80%99t%20committed%20to%20joining%20the%20military%2C%20but%20a%20recruiter%20may%20contact%20them%20afterward%2C%20Military.com%2C%20a%20military%20news%20source
