In the United States, the age range for the military draft typically includes males aged 18 to 25. However, the Selective Service System requires registration at age 18, and individuals can be drafted until they turn 26. In certain circumstances, older individuals may also be called upon, but this is less common. The draft has not been active since the Vietnam War, and the U.S. military has been an all-volunteer force since 1973.

What can be an argument to repeal the Twenty Sixth Amendment to the US Constitution?

The Twenty-Sixth Amendment was passed in 1971. At that time the war in Vietnam was still in progress and the draft age was 18. In the view of some people, persons at the age of 18 may not have enough "life experience" to cast a vote intelligently. Also, there is no draft. Added to that is that the drinking age in most US states is 21. Added to the argument to raise the voting age to 21 is the actual fact that even back in the day, universities and colleges only required 12 credits in US History. And, courses designed to study the US Constitution are not widespread. In fact, some political science majors know very little about important events in US history. This ranges from the American Revolution, the US Civil War and US history through the 20th century. If the major argument in 1971 was about the draft age, well that is no longer valid. Opinions on repealing the 26th amendment vary & it is true that there is an argument to keep the voting age at 18. The very fact that in the US, many students are 18 and have not graduated high school.
