They have some important information to share with you about how the United Nations is trying to take away U.S. sovereignty and impose a tax on Americans AGAIN -- and what YOU can do to stop them. Thank you. NewsMax.com ********************************************************** Dear Conservative Friend, Once again, the United Nations is trying a power grab, at the expense of the sovereignty of the United States of America -- and this time, they want to allow international bureaucrats to TAX the American people. They MUST be stopped. According to the American Policy Center (AmericanPolicy.org), "any day now this nation could find itself part of an international treaty that abolishes freedom on seven-tenths of the world's surface." That's because the U.N. Convention on the Law of the Sea, a treaty that has remained dead in the water since Bill Clinton's presidency, has re-emerged as a threat to this nation's sovereignty, thanks in large part to Senate Foreign Relations Chair Richard Lugar (R-IN) and his fellow committee members. In February, this committee voted unanimously to bring the treaty to the full Senate for consideration. Thankfully, Sen. Majority Leader Bill Frist (R-TN), who is responsible for scheduling legislation for votes, hasn't moved on this request... YET. With no public outcry in opposition, though, the pressures of support from members of the Administration, U.S. Navy officials, environmentalists and oil industry executives could result in a vote ANY DAY for Senate ratification. "Once two-thirds of senators approve," said Tom DeWeese, president of the APC, "America will have yet another U.N. shackle placed about her leg." This "Law of the Sea Treaty" (LOST) gives the United Nations *control of the sea*. It compromises U.S. national security, siphons U.S. corporate and taxpayer dollars for global interests in the form of new levies, stifles U.S. Development, and gives away hard-earned U.S. technology to even non-friendly nations. This treaty represents the "largest transfer of sovereignty to a UN body ever," says Brandon Wales, a senior associate with the Center for Security Policy. "This is unprecedented." If this treaty is ratified, the United States will no longer hold the right to board and search all suspect vessels -- a prohibition that will greatly endanger our nation's security and impede our progress with the war against terrorism. The United States will no longer hold jurisdiction to freely explore the ocean's beds and waters for oil and precious magnesium without first obtaining permission and receiving quota limitations from the International Sea Bed Authority, a U.N. body. The United States will be required to pay a tax on all ocean discoveries to this same UN body, and the U.S. will also have to share its mining and exploration technology with the likes of China and North Korea -- nations that in turn can use this technology against our own military defenses! ARE THESE PEOPLE CRAZY??? This treaty MUST be halted before the United Nations is allowed to stretch its powers over 70% of the Earth's surface and control of the seas... and we've set up just the way to do, where YOU can have a POWERFUL IMPACT on the Senate. TAKE ACTION NOW: We've set up our site so that you can send Blast Faxes to ALL 100 U.S. SENATORS -- a fax to every single one of them! -- demanding that they REJECT the "Law of the Sea Treaty," which would practically eliminate U.S. sovereignty in this area. It's up to the FULL Senate now to put this terrible treaty to rest, once and for all. The cost is ONLY $21 -- about what it would cost you in time & long distance fees to do it yourself.
