Urgent Action Needed!
Contact your Senators!
Senator Harry Reid has decided to bring a treaty, the UN
Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, up for vote this
week. It is important for all of us to
contact our senators and urge them not to ratify this treaty. Despite its attractive title, the treaty
effectively supplants parents with government in deciding the best way to care
for their children with disabilities.
This is never a good thing and is actually gravely destructive. Many people also see the treaty as a threat
to U.S. sovereignty.
Please take a little time to learn about the treaty and
encourage your senators not to ratify it.
Rick Santorum’s Patriot
Voices has been working very hard to protect us from it, and is a good
source of information. Mr. Santorum, of
course, is an advocate for children with disabilities and the father of a child
with Trisomy 18. You can also watch the
video below for some perspective on the treaty.
