Morse is not required to obtain an amateur radio license in the US.
It is only required to obtain the General class license (and by
inference the Extra class license, which has the General class license
as a prerequisite). Morse has not been a licensing requirement in the
US for several years now.

To "retain" something, it has to exist. Morse code, as "a requirement to
obtain an amateur radio license," hasn't existed for quite a few years.
Perhaps you should rephrase that to fit the current reality.

Code Yes or No

Yes. All U.S. Amateur Radio licensing requirements should be restored
to those which were in place prior to February 15, 1991. All "no-code"
Technician-
class licenses should be retroactively suspended for two years, in order
to give those who hold them the time to meet the newly-reinstated
licensing requirements. At the end of the two year "grace" period, those
licenses would be revoked. Of course, this would not apply to anyone
who upgraded to General, Advanced, or Amateur Extra prior to April 1, 2000,
having taken and passed the requisite 5, 13, and 20 WPM code tests for
their respective license classes.

No. It served its purpose once upon a time, but as a =requirement= for
a ham radio license it is no longer needed.

Of course not, now that Ham Radio is nothing more than a CB Service lets dump
