State and national legislators are beginning to slow down the drive toward the
North American Union. They are responding to alarmed American citizens who are
increasingly connecting the dots between stagnant incomes, job losses, North
American integration, open borders, “free trade,” and globalization.
Signs of Hope in 2007
While the Bush administration and prominent members of non-governmental
organizations are straining to establish by 2010 a “North American economic
and security community,” popularly known as the North American Union (NAU) the
American people are beginning to rise up in sufficient numbers to force state
and national legislators to block key components of the NAU merger. Below are
five examples.
• Support grows in Congress for Rep. Goode’s anti-NAU resolution: On January
22, 2007 Rep. Virgil Goode (R-Va.) introduced House Concurrent Resolution 40 in
the U.S. House of Representatives “expressing the sense of Congress that the
United States should not engage in the construction of a North American Free
Trade Agreement (NAFTA) Superhighway System or enter into a North American Union
with Mexico and Canada.” As of September 19 this resolution had 32 cosponsors.
Due to increasing constituent awareness about the North American Union, support
for Goode’s resolution is still growing. Five new cosponsors added their names
in the first 19 days of September alone.
• The Senate abandons the Bush-Kennedy amnesty bill: As documented in “Myth
vs. Fact,” a major goal of the NAU merger process is to “lay the groundwork
for the freer flow of people within North America” by 2010. The groundwork for
this freer flow of people within North America has actually been under
construction since passage of the 1986 immigration law providing amnesty to
millions of illegal immigrants.
During the last three years, the Senate has led the way toward open borders by
passing comprehensive immigration (read amnesty and temporary-worker) bills,
while the House has refused to go along and instead insisted on passing bills to
improve border security.
In light of this context, one of the most gratifying signs of hope from Congress
this year was the decisive retreat by the Senate from voting on the Bush-Kennedy
amnesty bill (S. 1639) on June 28. This surprising turnaround demonstrates just
how widespread and intense the public’s opposition to NAU-style open borders
is. However, now that the uproar has died down, the Senate is once again
pursuing amnesty, but they have labeled it as an agricultural work program
(AgJobs) to try to slip it past unaware constituents.
• Congress votes to stop Mexican trucks: Another gratifying sign of hope from
Congress was its votes in July and September to stop the Bush administration’s
pilot program to allow Mexican trucks to deliver goods throughout the United
States. This Mexican-trucks issue is a holdover from the original NAFTA
agreement in 1993. Although the NAFTA agreement provided the basis in principle
for Mexican trucking firms to begin making deliveries throughout the United
States immediately, Annex I of the agreement delayed authorization for Mexican
cross-border trucking services until the end of 1995. When the United States
continued to refuse to allow Mexican trucks into the United States after 1995,
Mexico appealed to a NAFTA “Arbitral Panel.” This panel ruled against the
United States in 2001, citing U.S. obligations under NAFTA as its basis.
During the next few years, the Bush administration attempted to permit Mexican
trucks to deliver goods throughout the United States, but was prevented from
doing so by a combination of congressional votes and court actions. In 2006, the
Bush administration announced it would begin a pilot program for Mexican trucks.
This time the courts failed to stop the program. (The pilot program was
instituted in early September.) However, the House (by a voice vote in July) and
Senate (by a vote of 75 to 23 on September 11) added an amendment to the
Department of Transportation and Housing and Urban Development Appropriations
Bill for 2008 denying federal funding for such a program.
• House votes to prohibit funds for the SPP: Showing just how much citizen
opposition to the Security and Prosperity Partnership (SPP) aspect of the NAU
merger process is being expressed to Congress, consider that on July 24 the U.S.
House of Representatives cast an historic first vote to restrict funding for the
SPP. The House overwhelmingly approved an amendment to the Department of
Transportation and Housing and Urban Development Appropriations Bill for 2008
(H.R. 3074) “prohibiting the use of funds to participate in a working group
pursuant to the Security and Prosperity Partnership” by a vote of 362 to
63.
• Eighteen state legislatures consider anti-NAU resolutions: Another
impressive sign of hope in 2007 has been the significant degree of success in
the campaign to block the NAU through state resolutions launched by the John
Birch Society in late 2006. This campaign is based on a model anti-NAU
resolution, available online, for state legislatures to adopt, asking Congress
to block the NAU. As can be seen in the accompanying U.S. map, anti-NAU
resolutions were introduced in 18 state legislatures. In three states, both
houses passed their anti-NAU resolution. In two additional states, one house
passed such a resolution. With 44 states having legislative sessions in 2008,
this campaign will continue next year.

Do you think Bush will be in office in 2010? He will be gone by January 2009.

Yes "dumb as my ass's ass" Bush will be gone by January 2009, but if
he passes a bill creating the Union, oh let's say any time between now and 2009,
the “North American economic and security community” can be in place by
2010.....duh!!
What an retarted question...think before trying to be witty!!

Why should we worry about something he have no control over. If the 3
governments decide to make a North American Union there is nothing we can do
about it short of a revolution and I don't see that happening ever. It would be
impossible to get enough people to agree with a revolution to make it occur.
Voting in democrats in the next election won't stop it either so why cry about
it? Even if it happens there will still be America. The European Union still has
all it's individual countries in it so what makes you think America will be
lost?
