    Our Constitution is our highest law. Nothing else may supersede it.

    The last I heard we are an independent nation not dependent on other nations making decisions for us. Keep it that way. No UN making our laws

    You need to keep the U.N. out of our country, our laws, our courts, and most importantly our lives. They have no right to try and dictate what we do in this country. The very fact that some of the Congress would even consider an organization not of American people to come in this country to tell us what to do is unconscionable. They are a foreign power. They should be completely thrown out of this country.

    I have two special needs children. I am concerned that I will lose my parental rights to the UN if this is passed. There are lots of ways that people with disabilities are already protected in this country. Please use your authority in this government to represent families like mine. We love our children and do not need the government to take control of their care. Please don't ratify the CRPD. Thanks!

    The UN does not represent the will of the American people, much less individual Americans. The UN takes the US away from God. Parents know what is best for the children God has given them--most certainly not the UN. The UN takes away the right to freedom of religion in telling parents how to raise their children. Please stay away from the UN!

    We don't need this treaty at all. And we don't need the UN sticking their nose into our country. If our govt is good enough to pass the wonderful laws we already have for disabled persons/children, then why would they want to admit that they can't get it right without UN oversight? We do not need or want this treaty. Vote AGAINST the UN Disabilities Treaty CRPD.

    As the parent of a disabled child, I know about our disability laws and DO NOT want the U.N. dictating ANYTHING regarding my choices for my child.

    Let the US make their OWN laws for our land. I don't trust the UN - they don't abide under OUR Constitution!

    I urge the Senator to vote “No” on ratifying the CRPD. We set the gold standard in disability law without the UN’s help, and we can continue to improve that standard without giving up our principles of self-government. Americans have repeatedly shown our generosity and respect for our fellow man, and I believe we can continue to do that without international babysitters. Ultimately, U.S. domestic policy should be decided in the halls of Congress, not at the U.N

    The USA already has laws that give the rights of persons with disabilities better protection than any other country in the world. We do not need to submit to an international treaty that would supersede our laws already in place.
