The USFPSA has been a thorn in the side of military retirees, (both male and
female) since 1982. Please help us out by registering and signing this
White House petition. Make sure if you DON’T want to receive updates from
the White House, do not check the box to receive updates.



ULSG is the USFSPA (Uniformed Services Former Spouse Act) Support Group that
can be found on the web at <http://www.ulsg.org> www.ulsg.org for more
information.



Even if this law does not apply to you now, as a military retiree, it can
and will if you are blindsided by a divorce.

The ULSG Petitions White House

September 23, 2011




"We the People"


The White House has instituted a new petition process called “We the
People.” The ULSG has been tracking this service and when the website opened
for new petitions on Thursday, 22 September, we submitted one of the first.




For any petition submitted, if 5000 signatures are received in 30 days, the
White House staff has promised to review the issue for action.



You will find our petition at:




<http://m1e.net/c?46193000-xoY2IF1DzV9fA%406834951-/l4Cws/KaUanw>
https://wwws.whitehouse.gov/petitions/%21/petition/eliminate-permanent-divis
ion-retentionretirement-pay-members-uniformed-services-divorce/F3YCjMKy


Please sign this today and urge friends and family to do the same. Suspense
date for us is 22 October 2011.





Text of the Petition is as follows (constrained by the website limits):


“Eliminate the permanent division of retention/retirement pay of members of
the Uniformed Services in a divorce “



"The permanent division of retention/retirement pay of members of the
Uniformed Services in a divorce as property under the authority of 10 U.S.C.
1408, the Uniformed Services Former Spouses Protection Act, PL 97-252 is
inconsistent with prevalent family law concepts, unfairly singles out
personnel of the uniformed services for unequal treatment of a divorce, is
discriminatory on its face and in impact, is inconsistent with other federal
laws, violates the constitutional concepts of federalism, and
unconstitutionally interferes with Presidential and Congressional duties to
provide for the Armed Forces. Such action by the President and Congress will
reestablish the proper legal precedent asestablished by the U.S. Supreme
Court in McCarty v. McCarty, 453 US 210(1981)."



We welcome our members to contact allied organizations and ask them to
notify their members of this petition drive. Suggested wording is:




“The ULSG has initiated a petition with the new White House program “We the
People” to urge President Obama to eliminate the lifetime division of
military retention/retirement pay in a divorce. We request that you ask
your members to sign the petition at:

The ULSG"
