change Armed Services recruitment policy of what qualifies as a medical disqualification.

Created by J.M. on December 07, 2012

Currently there are thousands of proud Americans that are not allowed to serve their country because they have medical conditions that are often completely manageable and often not related to the duties they would be assigned such as minor cases of epilepsy or asthma. Sometimes Americans are being disqualified for conditions they grew out of and no longer are treated for. We have men and women who serve in active combat situations today that are amputees yet we can not find a place for men and women that might have had a seizure once or twice as little children. We ask the President to do all he can to right this wrong, To correct this antiquated mistake
