OK Resolution to Prohibit Agenda 21 Funding

 

The United Nations Agenda 21 is a comprehensive plan of extreme environmentalism, social engineering, and global political control that was initiated at the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development (UNCED) held in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil in 1992. Since the United Nations Agenda 21 treaty in that it has never been ratified by the U.S. Senate neither the U.S. government nor any state or local government is legally bound by the treaty.

The United Nations Agenda 21 is being covertly pushed into local communities throughout the United States of America through the International Council of Local Environmental Initiatives (ICLEI), now calling itself "Local Governments for Sustainability," through local "sustainable development" policies, such as SmartGrowth, Wildlands Project, Resilient Cities, Regional Visioning Projects, and other "Green" or "Alternative" projects and this plan of radical so-called "sustainable development". The treaty views the American way of life of private property ownership, single-family homes, private car ownership and individual travel choices, and privately owned farms all as destructive to the environment.

According to the United Nations Agenda 21 policy, social justice is described as the right and opportunity of all people to benefit equally from the resources afforded by society and the environment which would be accomplished by a socialist/communist-style redistribution of wealth; and WHEREAS, according to the United Nations Agenda 21 policy,national sovereignty is deemed a social injustice.

Senate Joint Resolution 2 declares the State of Oklahoma and all political subdivisions are prohibited from implementing programs of, expending any sum of money for, being a member of, receiving funding from, contracting services from, or giving financial or other forms of aid to Local Governments for Sustainability (ICLEI), or any other organization promoting the implementation of the United Nations Agenda 21, sustainable
development, or smart growth.

The members of the Oklahoma Legislature recognize the destructive and insidious nature of the United Nations Agenda 21, endorse rejection of its radical policies and of any grant monies attached to it, and recommend exposing to the public and public policymakers across the country the dangerous intent of the plan.
