With women in combat roles, a federal court rules male-only draft unconstitutional- Maya Friedmann

This article talks about the all-male Selective Service System being ruled unconstitutional by a Texas judge. District Judge Gray Miler ruled that men and women are now equally able to fight. The U.S was able to maintain an all-volunteer military after the draft was discontinued in 1973, but it was reactivated in 1980 in case military enlistment was needed again. Miller noted that “the average woman could conceivably be better suited physically for some of today's combat positions than the average man, depending on which skills the position required. Combat roles no longer uniformly require sheer size or muscle."

The relates to US history because of the Selective Service Act of 1948.
