This week, 49 members of the U.S. Senate signed a letter to President Biden opposing the administration’s secretive plan to sign onto two instruments drafted by the World Health Assembly that will, in effect, make the World Health Organization Director-General Tedros Ghebreyesus – the dictator of U.S. public health. Eagle Forum applauds the Senators for taking a strong stand for our national and personal sovereignty.
This powerful joint congressional letter, spearheaded by Senator Ron Johnson of Wisconsin and signed by every Republican Senator, declared that “the most recently available version of the pandemic response treaty is dead on arrival.” The signatories declared that “Instead of addressing the WHO’s well-documented shortcomings,” the proposed Pandemic Treaty would have the effect of “supercharging the WHO” at the expense of, among other things, freedom of speech and property rights.
The letter also points out that a second instrument, involving radically transformative amendments to the existing International Health Regulations (IHR) is “not in order.” They properly point to Article 55 of the current IHR which requires any draft changes be provided to member states at least four months before a final vote on their adoption. The World Health Assembly is meeting to adopt these amendments at its next meeting scheduled for May 27-June 1, 2024, despite the fact that no final draft has been released.
