NRA-ILA GRASSROOTS ALERT: Vol. 19, No. 45 11/09/2012

Obama Administration Endorses New U.N. Arms Trade Treaty Negotiations
Just as NRA warned would happen, following the election, the Obama administration has moved forward with its plans to support a United Nations Arms Trade Treaty. On Wednesday November 7, the U.S. Mission to the U.N. made clear its support for renewed ATT negotiations, casting a vote in favor of resolution A/C.1/67/L.11. The resolution calls for a "Final United Nations Conference on the Arms Trade Treaty" to be held in New York City from March 18-28.

Undeterred by the failure of July's U.N. Conference on the ATT, in recent months the global civilian disarmament groups and their patron governments have been working nonstop to revive the treaty. Most visible were the attempts made by participants at the Second Review Conference of the UN Programme of Action on Small Arms and Light Weapons. At the conference, U.N. Secretary General Ban Ki-moon used his time to state, "an arms trade treaty is long overdue… I urge you to redouble efforts to agree on a robust 'ATT' as soon as possible."

Wouldn't this treaty have to go through the congress before it would go into effect?

Reynolds wrap is on sale at Meijers. But there seems to be sporadic shortages occurring.

I'm very familiar with Rand's involvement with NAGR.

Gun orgs do their share of fear mongering too.
