Stop the NGO Virus
I just sent the following e-mail to state- and federal- level politicians:
I urge you to propose a bill that will prevent the transfer of governmental power to non-governmental organizations (NGOs). This is a tactic that the extremist environmentalist movement has used to attack democracy.
There needs to be a law that will stop all federal funding to localities (states or local authorities, including school districts) that transfer any political authority to non-elected, non-democratic, non-governmental organizations. Towns that permit non-elected officials of NGOs to decide on zoning, for example, should be prevented from receiving federal funding.
This was proposed recently with respect to the 28 Corridor By-Pass by the Catskill Watershed Commission. It is outrageous that taxpayer money is being used to replace democratic processes with a totalitarianism based on UN Agenda 21. If you haven't read Agenda 21, I urge you to do so:
