Alabama Governor Kay Ivey is joining opposition to a new proposal that would grant new powers to the World Health Organization (WHO). Ivey joined 23 Republican governors in a letter to President Joe Biden that opposes “two proposals currently under negotiation that they believe would grant “unprecedented and unconstitutional powers over the United States and its people.”
“These proposed accords aim to significantly alter the amendments to the WHO’s existing
International Health Regulations (IHRs),” the letter said, “and introduce a new ‘Pandemic Agreement’ (Treaty) that would undermine national sovereignty, infringe upon states’ rights, and jeopardize constitutionally guaranteed freedoms.”The governors argue that the WHO’s new authority would infringe on the rights of American citizens.
“The objective of these instruments is to empower the WHO,” the letter continued, “particularly its uncontrollable Director-General, with the authority to restrict the rights of U.S. citizens, including freedoms such as speech, privacy, travel, choice of medical care, and informed consent, thus violating our Constitution’s core principles.”
