SENATE VOTES AGAINST U.N. RESOLUTION 2117

In a 53-46 vote, the Senate narrowly passed a measure that will stop the United States from entering into the United Nations Arms Trade Treaty...  The...treaty, which has been championed by the Obama Administration, would have effectively placed a global ban on the import and export of small firearms.  The ban would have affected all private gun owners in the U.S. and had language that would have implemented an international gun registry... on all private guns and ammo.

Astonishingly, 46 out of our 100 United States Senators were willing to give away our Constitutional rights to a foreign power.

Here are the 46..:

• Baldwin (D-WI)
• Baucus (D-MT)
• Bennett (D-CO)
• Blumenthal (D-CT)
• Boxer (D-CA)
• Brown (D-OH)
• Cantwell (D-WA)
