Alabama Adopts First Official State Ban on UN Agenda 21

by Alex Newman, Originally published at The New American

Alabama became the first state to adopt a tough law protecting private property and due process by prohibiting any government involvement with or participation in a controversial United Nations scheme known as Agenda 21. Activists from across the political spectrum celebrated the measure’s approval as a significant victory against the UN “sustainability” plot, expressing hope that similar sovereignty-preserving measures would be adopted in other states as the nationwide battle heats up.

The Alabama Senate Bill (SB) 477 legislation, known unofficially among some supporters as the “Due Process for Property Rights” Act, was approved unanimously by both the state House and Senate. After hesitating for a few days, late last month Republican Governor Robert Bentley finally signed into law the wildly popular measure — but only after heavy pressure from activists forced his hand.

Virtually no mention of the law was made in the establishment press. But analysts said the measure was likely the strongest protection against the UN scheme passed anywhere in America so far. The law, aimed at protecting private property rights, specifically prevents all state agencies and local governments in Alabama from participating in the global scheme in any way.

“The State of Alabama and all political subdivisions may not adopt or implement policy recommendations that deliberately or inadvertently infringe or restrict private property rights without due process, as may be required by policy recommendations originating in, or traceable to ‘Agenda 21,’ ” the law states, adding a brief background on the UN plan hatched at the 1992 “Earth Summit” in Rio de Janeiro.

The people of Alabama acting through their elected representatives — not UN bureaucrats — have the authority to develop the state’s environmental and development policies, the official synopsis of the law explains. Therefore, infringements on the property rights of citizens linked to “any other international law or ancillary plan of action that contravenes the Constitution of the United States or the Constitution of the State of Alabama” are also prohibited under the new measure.

Of course, as the law points out, the UN has enlisted a broad array of non-governmental and inter-governmental organizations in its effort to foist Agenda 21 on the world — most notably a Germany-based group called ICLEI, formerly known as the International Council of Local Environmental Initiatives. But the new measure takes direct aim at that problem, too: “the State of Alabama and all political subdivisions may not enter into any agreement, expend any sum of money, or receive funds contracting services, or giving financial aid to or from” any such entities, as defined in Agenda 21 documents.

“This bill, that would bar the state from taking over private property without due process, is intended to shelter Alabamians from the United Nations Agenda 21, a sustainable development initiative that some conservatives see as a precursor for the creation of a world government,” explained Alabama GOP Executive Director T.J. Maloney when announcing that it had been signed into law. The Republican National Committee (RNC) adopted a resolution earlier this year blasting the global scheme and urging policy makers to oppose it, and state parties have followed suit.

Public support for the Alabama law was overwhelming and bipartisan as citizens who had been terrorized by Agenda 21-linked schemes targeting their private property spoke out. But according to analysts and state Republican Party officials cited in press reports, Gov. Bentley was originally hesitant to sign the bill — almost certainly due to concerns over the potential loss of some federal funding.

The U.S. Senate, of course, has never formally ratified Agenda 21. But the executive branch — in conjunction with accomplices at the international, state, and local levels — has for two decades been quietly attempting to impose the plan on Americans by stealth, mostly using deceptive terms like “Smart Growth” and “Green.” And proponents of the global scheme consistently threaten that states seeking to protect citizens from the UN plot could end up losing some federal funds.

We have enough trouble holding our own layers of government accountable. Now we should add another that has no accountability?

the Trans Pacific Partnership will not be pleased

can the US still sign an agreement with Alabama dissenting ?

[-] 0 points by TrevorMnemonic (5827) 11 years ago

Most likely. Nothing has really stopped them from shit so far.

The government has passed unconstitutional laws like the patriot act and indefinite detention provisions for American citizens as well as kill innocent people in foreign countries.

[-] 1 points by shoozTroll (17632) 11 years ago

An entire State buys into a conspiracy theory, and spends time, money and effort on it.

What do you want to bet it was teabaggers that pushed the legislation?

Where's that thrashy, when you need him?.

[-] 3 points by gnomunny (6819) from St Louis, MO 11 years ago

Although there are C-T's surrounding it, Agenda 21 is real UN "plan of action." Just Wiki it, shooz, it ain't that hard.

[-] 2 points by shoozTroll (17632) 11 years ago

It's Glenn Beck BS that drives this insanity into the States.

Yes, Alabama's reaction is based on a conspiracy theory.....nothing else.

It's a complete waste of legislative action, based in teabaggery..

[-] 0 points by gnomunny (6819) from St Louis, MO 11 years ago

What makes me a bit suspicious about Alabama's move is the fact that it's being done by a Repub for one. If Agenda 21 was an elitist agenda, it seems to me they would be all for it.

[-] 2 points by shoozTroll (17632) 11 years ago

These are teabaggers. Of course they believe in Glenn Beck conspiracy theories.

It's just a misuse of government position. A show of lunacy.

What's next? Teach creationism???

Oh, wait, the bozos do that too.

[-] 2 points by gnomunny (6819) from St Louis, MO 11 years ago

I heard recently that one of the southern states now teaches it's schoolchildren that the Loch Ness monster is proof that man and dinosaur coexisted. Hey, maybe I should post that to the "Happy Birthday to the Greatest Country Ever" thread as a shining example of just how far we've come.

[-] 3 points by shoozTroll (17632) 11 years ago

I posted that here a week or so ago.

There seems to be no limit to the teabaggery.

Whether they are raising taxes, teaching BS, legislating against the weather, or backing Glenn Beck conspiracy theory, they are dumb as dumb can be..

[-] 2 points by DKAtoday (33802) from Coon Rapids, MN 11 years ago

LOL - I wonder if they show land of the lost and other such classics as proof.

Hey comic books are probably cheaper to buy in volume than a text book anyway.

[-] 1 points by gnomunny (6819) from St Louis, MO 11 years ago

I almost fell off my chair after hearing that. I think it was on The Young Turks or Spitzer.

[-] 1 points by DKAtoday (33802) from Coon Rapids, MN 11 years ago

Probably both - this major drive to take the next step in dumbing down in the south has been getting some attention.

[-] 1 points by gnomunny (6819) from St Louis, MO 11 years ago

Yeah, I think the "powers" have noticed their little sheep waking up so they've doubled-down on the dumbing-down. ;-)

[-] 1 points by DKAtoday (33802) from Coon Rapids, MN 11 years ago

Makes me wonder why they have not opened the drugs spigot yet.

Although now Texas seems to have legalization of pot on their ballot now?

[-] 2 points by gnomunny (6819) from St Louis, MO 11 years ago

That's what always amazed me about this government's flat refusal to consider decriminalizing weed, since it basically makes one more passive and apathetic. Greed is one reason, but I guess they figure they don't need marijuana to keep their people passive. They always have the military.

Edit: Then there's articles like this, talking about adding lithium to the water supply. I can't vouch for the accuracy of course, but in this day and age, nothing would surprise me:

http://www.thedaily.com/page/2011/05/22/052211-news-lithium-1-5/

[-] 3 points by DKAtoday (33802) from Coon Rapids, MN 11 years ago

Hey - lithium in the water - that just started another thought.

Fracking fucking-up ground water - so then we will need to buy bottled water.

The bottled water conglomerate can then put designer drugs for different market areas.

[-] 2 points by gnomunny (6819) from St Louis, MO 11 years ago

Ramping up their supply capacity? Hell, you were more serious than I thought! That's disturbing because I've always been a hardcore anti-bottled water kinda guy. If I'm forced to buy bottled water for some reason, I'm gonna be pissed.

[-] 3 points by DKAtoday (33802) from Coon Rapids, MN 11 years ago

Go to any convenience store gas station supermarket - and you will see your water isle. That is a new isle or section of an isle in every store now.

Yep flavored water too.

[-] 2 points by gnomunny (6819) from St Louis, MO 11 years ago

Wow, what a connection! Fuck up our drinking water, forcing us to drink "processed" water instead. Those devious bastards!

In all seriousness though, who's to say this won't happen in the future? From what I've been hearing these last few years, I wouldn't put anything passed those "people." Just when you thought you'd heard it all, . . .

[-] 3 points by DKAtoday (33802) from Coon Rapids, MN 11 years ago

I do believe that they have been getting the market ready for the need to buy bottled water - they have been ramping up their supply capability - with sports water drinks and fancy vitamin water drinks and sparkling water and imported water.

And now they are gonna seriously frack-up our natural water supply.

[-] 1 points by gnomunny (6819) from St Louis, MO 11 years ago

It sounds grim. I'm genuinely amazed at what has been going on these past half-dozen years I wasn't paying attention. I stopped watching MSM news and reading the local paper years ago, so I haven't been paying attention to world events. (And taking care of my mom until she passed away). The world's gone to hell in the meantime, DK!

[-] 1 points by DKAtoday (33802) from Coon Rapids, MN 11 years ago

Time flies when we are wrapped up in the task of surviving - it is the best distraction manipulators could come up with. People with a decent amount of time on their hands have time to look at the world around them and take notice of what is going on.

[-] 1 points by gnomunny (6819) from St Louis, MO 11 years ago

How long has this been going on? It could be coincidence, just putting out the new brands and the fact that it's summertime. Or has this been going on for a while?

[-] 1 points by DKAtoday (33802) from Coon Rapids, MN 11 years ago

Several years now , remember Evian water? Anyway now they just removed restrictions from the fracking industry and they are pedal to the metal out to reap natural gas.

Unless we can put a stop to it restrict it slow it down get the regulations back in place we are gonna be well and truly screwed in the very near future.

[-] 2 points by DKAtoday (33802) from Coon Rapids, MN 11 years ago

That or they are waiting for things to get really bad - and then throw open the drug store.

[-] 0 points by hchc (3297) from Tampa, FL 11 years ago

Do they make more money off of taxing it, or off of prosecuting it?

[-] 2 points by gnomunny (6819) from St Louis, MO 11 years ago

Or dealing it? Oh wait, they only deal heroin and cocaine (and pharma). My bad.

Must be from prosecuting it.

Sorry. You are wrong.

It's just runaway teabaggery. It's not based in reality.

you obviously have a computer. make an effort, research it for yourself.

You obviously have little idea how to use a computer for accurate research.

I note you didn't follow the links I provided to de-bunk the Glenn Beckness of your BS.

I did research it (agenda 21) a long time ago.

You just act like this is the first posting. It's not.

Agenda 21 as you know it, is nothing more than a teabagger/RW conspiracy theory.

Now.....go hide under your bed as the UN is coming to get you.

[-] -1 points by salta (-1104) 11 years ago

too bad you dont have any research skills. it's not a theory its fact. agenda 21 is a direct assault on private property rights and american sovereignty.

[-] 0 points by shoozTroll (17632) 11 years ago

Yep. that's exactly what Glenn said.

Of course it's BS, but no matter.

Go hide under your bed and wait for the flotilla.

This from the state that has no minimum wage; where 45% of the people believe Obama is Muslim ( http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2012/03/13/obama-s-a-muslim-ppp-polls-in-south-appear-designed-to-bring-out-bias.html ) ; and ranks as one of the poorest states in educating its children.

Alabama is a prime example of how not to run a state or any type of government. Just 82% of the people have graduated high school. No wonder this site ranks it as the 8th dumbest state in the union: http://www.mainstreet.com/slideshow/lifestyle/smartest-dumbest-states .

In fact most educated people would probably do exactly opposite of what the people of Alabama do.

good news from alabama.

For those who actually read Agenda 21, you will find it is a document tryinig to reverse or contain the excesses of the wealthy and industrialists who have enslaved the world's poor and ruined the global environment in their efforts to push their costs off on others in a relentless drive for profits. Shame on the, legislators of Alabama, who sneak things like this through the state legislature (e.g., their immigration law travesty) without telling the public. The people of Alabama need to pay attention to the wealthy working to kill their chances for equality and the future of their children.

[-] 2 points by gnomunny (6819) from St Louis, MO 11 years ago

If the policies of Agenda 21 and the RIO summit are implemented, the absolute LEAST that will happen is consumers will see the price of absolutely everything skyrocket. Their plan is to have the many trillions (MANY trillions) of dollars needed to implement these policies paid for by you and me. In every utility bill you pay, every tank of gas, every product you buy.
