United Nations

Restoring American Sovereignty and Leadership > International Relations > United Nations
We reservedly support involvement in the United Nations. We support the United States's tough stance to counter the UN's many flaws. We oppose any measure that subjugates the United States to UN control.We believe it is in the best interest of the citizens of the United States that we immediately rescind our membership in, as well as all financial and military contributions to, the United Nations. We will: 1. support legislation similar to "The American Sovereignty Preservation Act", which would remove the United States entirely from the control of the UN; 2. demand that Congress ratify no more, and rescind any existing treaties that compromise the United States Constitution; 3. support immediate recall of our military forces from UN initiated engagements, and restore them to their traditional mission of defending the liberty and freedom of the people of the United States of America; 4. support an amendment to the United States Constitution stating, "a treaty that conflicts with any provisions of the Constitution shall not be of any force or effect"; 5. urge our Texas Senators to unalterably oppose any agreement or treaty that seeks to establish an International Criminal Court (ICC), make the United States a participatory party to such a court; recognize the jurisdiction of such a court within the United States or upon any native-born or naturalized citizen of the United States; and We oppose: 1. UN control of any United States land or natural resources; 2. the use of Presidential Executive Orders to implement UN treaties, thereby circumventing our elected Congress; 3. any attempt by the federal government, or the UN, to directly or indirectly tax United States citizens for UN support; 4. a UN resolution that would force the United States to adopt gun control measures by treaty; 5. the placement of the UN flag and emblem on public property or in government facilities; 6. payment of any debt allegedly owed to the UN; 7. Any attempt to grant veto power over the sovereignty of the United States to set national defense priorities, wage effective war, and negotiate peace in terms favorable to our vital interests; and 8. Ratification of the Law of the Sea Treaty (LOST). We urge Congress to evict the United Nations from the United States and eliminate any further participation.

This is a highly paranoid view. There is no credible movement to subjugate the United States to the United Nations. The US has consistently rebuffed all such proposals.

While the United Nations has deep flaws, it is the only forum for broad international discourse.

Several of the enumerated objections are redundant with other parts of the platform.

LOST should be handled in another plank.
