When the authors say "But that doesn't mean you're completely off the hook" in the section "Selective
Service & the Draft," they employ which literary device?

"Off the hook” is an idiom, a literary device that means no longer having an obligation or responsibility to someone.

Explanation:

Unlike a metaphor, an idiom´s meaning is more difficult to understand, as it can not be directly derived from the words. In this example, the understanding of the idiom requires some knowledge about how, in fishing, getting a fish off the hook means releasing it after having cathed it.
