U.S. Taxpayers Will Continue to Pay More Than One-Fifth of U.N. BudgetBy Patrick Goodenough, December 28, 2012 (CNSNews.com) - In one of its last actions of the year, the United Nations General Assembly on Christmas Eve agreed to extend for another three years the formula that has U.S. taxpayers contributing more than one-fifth of the world body's regular budget. No member-state called for a recorded vote, and the resolution confirming the contributions that each country will make for the 2013-2015 period was summarily adopted. The assembly also approved a two-year U.N. budget of $5.4 billion. cnsnews.com/news/article/us-taxpayers-will-continue-pay-more-one-fifth-un-budget
