Let's help 'em out... The U.S. Senate: www.senate.gov/general/contact_information/senators_cfm.cfmThe U.S. House of Representatives: writerep.house.gov/writerep/welcome.shtml Republicans to Unveil Bill to Force Major Changes at the UNBy Nicole Gaouette and Bill Varner - Aug 30, 2011 1:01 AM AT House Republicans are planning to introduce today legislation that seeks to force major changes at the United Nations, using as leverage the U.S.’s 22 percent contribution to the world body’s operating budget. The bill by Ileana Ros-Lehtinen, the Republican chairwoman of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, would require the UN to adopt a voluntary budget model in which countries selectively fund UN agencies rather than according to a set formula. It would end funding for Palestinian refugees, limit use of U.S. funds to only purposes outlined by Congress and stop contributions to peacekeeping operations until management changes are made. The legislation represents the leading edge of Republican moves against the world body at a time when the Obama administration is increasingly building its foreign policy around multilateral institutions, making the alliance-based approach central to its stance on Libya. The bill may advance in the Republican-controlled House but is likely to hit opposition in the Senate and from President Barack Obama. .. www.bloomberg.com/news/2011-08-30/republicans-to-unveil-bill-to-force-major-changes-at-the-un.html

I also suspect it will suffer at the hands of the NEOCONs and their NWO handlers.

Does anyone remember when O went to India after the Nov. elections? One or two days later the UN had a press release stating that any UN policy shouldn't have to go thru the Senate & the US should adopt UN policy.
The UN stated they should be able to bypass the Constitution. Soooo! Get out of the UN & get the UN out of America.

Amen. As Brother John Birch has said for years, "Get the US out of the UN and the UN out of the US." Let France have them and let Germany pay for them....

We just need a little change to the UN building...like moving it about 200 miles to the east right smack dab in the middle of the Atlantic. Let them rule the fishes.

This bill like the rest all are written with a clause that the President can change them in the name of Security of the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA Corp. That is because of the 1933 act to allow FDR to "Do anything he feels will enhance the security of the nation". That translates to read that the congress had abdicated their checks and balances on the Executive Branch. That act is still in effect and is quoted each time the POTUS makes an Executive Order.
