GOP Rejects Un Agenda 21 As Threat To US Sovereignty

unagenda 21

The GOP platform that was approved at the Republican National Convention in Tampa rejected the United Nations “sustainability” scheme known as Agenda 21. The platform committee said the UN program was “erosive of American sovereignty” and that they “oppose any form of U.N. Global Tax.”

The platform also went on to declare,

We oppose any diplomatic efforts that could result in giving the United Nations unprecedented control over the Internet. International regulatory control over the open and free Internet would have disastrous consequences for the United States and the world.

In a section of the platform titled Sovereign American Leadership in International Organizations the GOP recapped the history of American involvement in World War II and the founding of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO). The platform reads,

“Since the end of World War II, the United States, through the founding of the United Nations and NATO, has participated in a wide range of international organizations which can, but sometimes do not, serve the cause of peace and prosperity. While acting through them, our country must always reserve the right to go its own way. There can be no substitute for principled American leadership.”

The platform says that the United Nations is in “dire need of reform, starting with full transparency in the financial operations of its overpaid bureaucrats.” It also claims, “The United Nations Population Fund has a shameful record of collaboration with China’s program of compulsory abortion. We affirm the Republican Party’s long-held position known as the Mexico City Policy, first announced by President Reagan in 1984, which prohibits the granting of federal monies to non-governmental organization that provide or promote abortion.”
