Dear Liberty Activist,

H.R. 1146 - American Sovereignty Restoration Act is now featured in our current legislation section. H.R. 1146 would withdraw the United States from the United Nations and prohibit U.S. armed forces from serving under U.N. command.

Herbert W. Titus, our senior legal advisor, has written an analysis of H.R. 1146. In his analysis, Mr. Titus argues:

1. The Charter of the United Nations is illegitimate; having never been lawfully ratified. 2. The Charter of the United Nations unlawfully delegates congressional and presidential war powers. 3. The United Nations General Assembly has no lawful power to require the United States to pay dues to the United Nations. 4. The Charter of the United Nations unconstitutionally usurps power reserved to the states by the Tenth Amendment. 5. H.R. 1146 - The American Sovereignty Restoration Act is the only viable solution to the continual abuses by the United Nations.

A brief description of H.R. 1146 and a link to Mr. Titus's analysis (HTML format and Adobe PDF format) is at http://capwiz.com/liberty/issues/bills/?bill=39551

Yep. Mr. Ron Paul. I emailed the US Senators from texas to ask them to support this bill.

Ron Paul is my hero. He is also pushing legislation to abolish the IRS and the personal income tax. Go Ron!

I visit those folks regularly to check on the latest freedom initiatives and always act on them. If there is such a creature as an honest politician then I think these folks are them!

I have a question. How is it that Representatives or Senators can introduce and vote for unconstitutional legislation without fear of impeachment? Same holds true for unconstitutional decisions from the Federal bench!
