Resolution of the House of Representatives of the State of Oklahoma WHEREAS, President Clinton has affirmed that his foreign policy regarding the deployment of the United States military forces under the authority of the United Nations will bear little change from that of his predecessor; and WHEREAS, the constitutional role of the United States military is to protect the life, liberty and property of 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 of the Declaration of Independence, our freedom, and our way of life. Now, therefore, be it resolved by the House of Representatives of the 2nd session of the 44th Oklahoma Legislature: That the United States Congress is hereby memorialized to: 1. Cease the appropriation of United States funds for any military activity not authorized by Congress; 2. Cease engagement in any military activity under the authority of the United Nations or any world body; 3. Cease the rendering of aid to any activity or engagement under the jurisdiction of the United Nations or any world body; and 4. Cease any support for the establishment of a "new world order" or to any form of global government. That the United States Congress is hereby memorialized to 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.
