In March of this year, Rep. Mike Rogers (R-AL) introduced HR1205: American Sovereignty Restoration Act of 2015,
which was assigned to a congressional committee. The bill would
effectively end the united States' membership in the United Nations, but
why is there no push to advance it forward?
"The U.N. continues to prove it's an inefficient bureaucracy and a complete waste of American tax dollars," Rogers said in a statement.
"Although the United States makes up almost a quarter of the U.N.'s
annual budget, the U.N. has attempted a number of actions that attack
our rights as U.S. citizens."
Among those actions that the UN has been engaged in are actions like the Law of the Sea Treaty, which according to Rogers "would subject our country to internationally-based environmental mandates, costing American businesses more money." Additionally, Rogers pointed to the UN's work to "re-establish an international regulation regime on global warming which would heavily target our fossil fuels."
