This is Frank Gaffney with the Secure Freedom Minute.
Next year, we’ll celebrate the 250th birthday of a nation founded to ensure there’s “no taxation without representation.”
Unfortunately, the United Nations is poised to start levying taxes our representatives can’t prevent, putting its pursuit of world government on steroids.
It begins with the International Maritime Organization imposing costs on shipping producing greenhouse gas emissions. Tens of billions of dollars would thus be generated, redistributing wealth from American and other consumers to feed the UN’s climate change slush fund and agenda.
This initiative would not only fundamentally transform the UN by ending its reliance on member states’ funding, which affords them a measure of control. It will also create a precedent for many more taxes to fund its globalist priorities.
The Trump administration has opposed this global tax. It must now impose real sanctions to prevent it from being imposed on us.
This is Frank Gaffney.
Hear! Hear! Every minute brings another abuse...
We need to oppose this UN Global Shipping Fuel Tax just as we need to oppose the UN International Court of Justice. The 2 combined would be a death sentence to national sovereignty.
