Create a requirement for all US residents between the ages of 18 and 24 to serve two years of Public Service.

Created by R.T. on November 27, 2012

Youth are our future, this petition is intended to prepare the next generation for the responsibility of holding our democracy. Public service will complete high school education by learning through service. My vision is for a Civilian Conservation Corp type of service, with additional training in firearms. This is not military service, however it will prepare youth who choose military service with some basic training. Our returning veterans can serve in leadership of this program. Every area of society will benefit from youth service. Public education, infrastructure improvement, disaster relief, health care, all could benefit from this program. Finally, I believe completing two years of public service should qualify any non-citizen for a path to full citizenship should they desire
