SENATE RESOLUTION NO. 18
(By Senators Ross, Helmick, Dalton and Withers)
Urging the United States Congress to cease to appropriate funds
for any military activity not authorized by Congress.
Whereas, The President has affirmed that his foreign policy
will bear little change from that of his predecessor regarding
the deployment of United States military forces under the
authority of the United Nations; and
Whereas, The constitutional role of our military is to
protect the life, liberty and property of the United States
citizens and to defend our nation against insurrection or foreign
invasion; and
Whereas, The United States is an independent sovereign
nation and not a tributary of the United Nations; and
Whereas, There is no popular support for the establishment
of a "new world order" or world sovereignty of any kind either
under the United Nations or under any world body in any form of
global government; and
Whereas, Global government would mean the destruction of our
Constitution and corruption of the spirit for the Declaration of
Independence, our freedom and our way of life; therefore, be it
Resolved by the Senate:
That the Senate hereby urges the United States Congress to
cease to appropriate funds for any military activity notauthorized by Congress and to not engage in any military activity
under the authority of the United Nations or of any world body
and to cease rendering aid and consent to the establishment of a
"new world order" or to any form of global government; and, be it
Further Resolved, That the Congress of the United States
should refrain from taking any further steps toward the economic
or political merger of the United States into a world body or any
form of world government; and be it
Further Resolved, That the Clerk is hereby directed to
forward a copy of this resolution to the Clerk of the United
States Senate, the Clerk of the United States House of
Representatives and to each member of the West Virginia
delegation to the United States Congress.
