The Soon Coming Judgment Of God Upon America and How To Escape It 336
sovereignty to the U.N. Congressman Paul stated before the House:
Since the passage of the United Nations Participation Act…congressional
control…has been more theoretical than real. Presidents from Truman to the
current President have again and again presented Congress with already-begun
military actions, thus forcing Congress's hand to support United States troops or
risk the accusation of having put the Nation's servicemen and service women in
unnecessary danger. Instead of seeking congressional approval of the use of the
United States Armed Forces in service of the United Nations, presidents from
Truman to Clinton have used the United Nations Security Council as a substitute
for congressional authorization of the deployment of United States Armed Forces
in that service.
This transfer of power from Congress to the United Nations has not,
however, been limited to the power to make war. Increasingly, Presidents are
using the U.N. not only to implement foreign policy in pursuit of international
peace, but also domestic policy in pursuit of international, environmental,
economic, education, social welfare and human rights policy, both in derogation
(undermining) of the legislative prerogatives of Congress and of the 50 State
legislatures, and further in derogation (undermining) of the rights of the American
people to constitute their own civil order….

In 1999, Congressman Ron Paul introduced House Resolution 1146—The American
Sovereignty Restoration Act to Congress. H.R. 1146 attempts to resolve the unconstitutional
ratification of the UN Charter. It also remedies the loss of sovereignty the U.S. has suffered as a
result of U.N. actions and presidential cooperation with the U.N. H.R. 1146 calls for an end to
U.S. participation in the U.N., its subsidiary agencies, all its conventions and treaties, and U.N.
peacekeeping operations. It prohibits the funding of the U.N., its agencies, its peacekeeping
operations and service of U.S. troops under U.N. command. It also: repeals the authorization for
U.N. headquarters in New York; repeals authorization for the U.N.’s use of U.S. government
facilities; and it repeals Diplomatic Immunity for U.N. officers and employees.

Passage of the resolution would most likely bring an end to the U.N. The House did not
vote on H.R. 1146 so in 2003 Representative Paul reintroduced the resolution. Fifteen (15)
Republicans signed on as cosponsors in 2003 but the resolution has not made it to the floor for a
vote. The resolution was referred to the House Committee on International Relations and has
been tied up there.

The small number of cosponsors for this very important piece of legislation and the
failure of the House of Representatives to bring it to a vote clearly shows where the heart of the
U.S. Congress lies. Congress has clearly been presented with the facts that the intentions and
purpose of the U.N. is to create a one-world government. They are aware that the U.N. aims to
eliminate U.S. sovereignty and the sovereignty of other nations of the world. They are aware of
U.N. plans to set aside 50% of the U.S. as preserved wild lands under the Treaty on Biodiversity.
They are aware the U.N. has altered the independent finding of scientist because it desires to put
