STATE OF OKLAHOMA 
1st Session of the 51st Legislature (2007)

SENATE 
CONCURRENT RESOLUTION 10                      By: Brogdon

     WHEREAS, President George W. Bush entered into the Security and Prosperity Partnership (SPP) of North America with the nations of Mexico and Canada on March 23, 2005; and 

     WHEREAS, the gradual creation of such a North American Union from a merger of the United States, Mexico, and Canada would be a direct threat to the United States Constitution and the national independence of the United States and would imply an eventual end to national borders within North America; and

     WHEREAS, on March 31, 2006 , a White House news release confirmed the continuing existence of the SPP and its “ongoing process of cooperation”; and

     WHEREAS, Congressman Ron Paul has written that the key to the SPP plan is an extensive new North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) super highway: “Under this new ‘partnership’, a massive highway is being planned to stretch from Canada into Mexico , through the State of Texas. The super highway will also pass through Oklahoma ; and 

     WHEREAS, this trilateral partnership to develop a North American Union has never been presented to Congress as an agreement or treaty, and has had virtually no Congressional oversight; and 

     WHEREAS, state and local governments throughout the United States would be negatively impacted by the SPP and North American Union process, such as the “open borders” vision of the SPP, eminent domain takings of private property along the planned super highways, and increased law enforcement problems along those same super highways. 

     NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE SENATE OF THE 1ST SESSION OF THE 51ST OKLAHOMA LEGISLATURE, THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES CONCURRING THEREIN: 

     THAT the Oklahoma State Legislature urges the United States Congress, especially Oklahoma’s Congressional delegation, to use all of their efforts, energies, and diligence to withdraw the United States from any further participation in the Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America. THAT the Oklahoma State Legislature further urges Congress to withdraw the United States from any other bilateral or multilateral activity, however named, which seeks to advance, authorize, fund, or in any way promote the creation of any policy or structure to accomplish any form of North American Union as described in this resolution. 

     THAT a copy of this resolution be sent to the Majority Leader of the United States Senate, the Speaker of the United States House of Representatives, and to the members of Oklahoma’s Congressional delegation.
