In less than 48 hours, the World Health Organization (WHO) will meet to discuss adoption of a new international treaty that will put the United Nations’ agency in charge of America respecting anything that has the “potential to impact public health.” In other words, everything!
If Joe Biden signs this treaty, the U.S. will be forced to adopt and obey the WHO rules — even if those rules violate existing U.S. laws.
America’s future is on the line. Help us fight.
The U.S. House has a bill that will stop this power grab dead in its tracks. HR 79 will withdraw the United States from the WHO and will stop all funding going to this corrupt, Marxist, one world government wannabe.
The WHO meetings begin SUNDAY! We must RUSH to wake Congress to the danger ahead! Demand they STOP JOE BIDEN from signing the WHO world takeover amendments. Then read on for the news. — Mat
Some in Congress claim that the impending amendments to the World Health Organization (WHO) cannot change U.S. law. They are WRONG, and we have some disturbing history to prove it.
Starting Sunday, the WHO will begin its annual meeting and change its International Health Regulations (IHR). President George W. Bush signed us on to the WHO’s IHR — without Senate approval — in 2005. However, the WHO and the IHR rules were only advisory at that time. Bush argued he had unilateral authority because Congress had previously approved membership in the WHO going back to 1949.
Fast-forward to 2023, and Joe Biden is taking Bush’s folly one step farther. The WHO no longer desires to be simply an advisory agency. Thanks in part to proposals made by the Biden administration, the WHO now seeks to become an enforcement body whose dictates will carry the force of international law.
Unless we stop this NOW, we will all be stuck under the United Nations’ WHO rule over nearly every aspect of our lives. Fax Congress NOW to stop it!
As such, if Biden signs up America for this agreement, the WHO — not Congress — will be in charge of our laws on abortion, child sex changes, travel, and more. The WHO would even have the power to close our national borders or even state borders on a whim. Meanwhile, Congress will be forced to change our existing laws to comply with the WHO or be sued in international court.
Some recent history for members of Congress in denial …
In 1988, President George H.W. Bush began negotiating with Canada and Mexico to form what was then the largest trade block in the world. Unable to finish negotiations before the end of his presidency, Bush passed the project on to incoming President Bill Clinton who signed America on to the North America Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), which became effective in 1994.
Both presidents knew they could not reach a 2/3 majority approval of the Senate required under our Constitution to pass a treaty. So, they simply called the massive trade measures “agreements.”
In 2002, Congress passed the Country of Origin Labeling (COOL) law to protect American consumers, requiring meat sold in the United States to list the country of origin for the product. Canada and Mexico promptly sued the United States for violating the NAFTA “agreement.”
The lawsuit took seven years to wind its way through the U.N.’s World Trade Organization (WTO) Appellate Panel (a world court) before a ruling finally came down. The WTO ordered that the U.S. COOL law was in violation of the international law created by the NAFTA agreement.
The U.S. was slapped with 1 billion dollars in sanctions until Congress caved to the treaty Clinton signed without congressional approval.
On December 18, 2015, Congress was forced to repeal its 2002 labeling law and replace it with the WTO standard. This same thing can happen now with the WHO.
If Biden signs this new, international law-changing treaty, the WHO will require all U.S. abortion-prevention laws to be struck down, both on the federal and state levels.
Senators Marco Rubio (R-FL) and Ron Johnson (R-WI) are raising the alarm, trying to fight Biden’s unlawful scheme. The WHO is pushing for “broad new powers under a new international treaty for pandemic preparedness and response,” according to Rubio.
Senator Rubio is working to “require that any convention or agreement resulting from the work of the World Health Assembly’s intergovernmental negotiating body be deemed a treaty, requiring the advice and consent of the Senate.”
Sen. Johnson agrees, saying “[T]he WHO, along with our federal health agencies, failed miserably in its response to COVID-19. Its failure should not be rewarded with a new international treaty that would increase its power at the expense of American sovereignty.”
Johnson noted he and Rubio are working to make clear to the Biden administration “that any new WHO pandemic agreement must be deemed a treaty and submitted to the Senate for ratification.”
Senators Rubio and Johnson need YOUR HELP right now to fight the Biden administration’s egregious attempt to transfer U.S. sovereignty to the United Nations’ WHO and its world courts.
“The sovereignty of the United States is not negotiable,” says Sen. Johnson (emphasis added). He’s right!
If Joe Biden continues this course, Liberty Counsel will be forced once again to drag his corrupt administration into court to defend our freedom.
Defending freedom against the Biden administration’s continuing attacks on liberty is expensive.
