Senate Ratifies President’s Dangerous Treaty — Heritage Action for America

Senate Ratifies President’s Dangerous Treaty — Heritage Action for America: "Earlier today, the U.S. Senate voted to ratify President Obama’s dangerously flawed New START Treaty. The treaty, touted by the White House as a major foreign policy victory, would undermine America’s national security by restricting our missile defense capabilities, limiting our non-nuclear offensive arsenal and ignoring the threat posed by Russia’s tactical nuclear arsenal.

Heritage Action’s CEO Michael A. Needham made the following statement:

All eyes are now on the Obama administration. Throughout the debate, they assured Senators and the American people that New START would not harm our national security.

If the Russian government attempts to use the treaty to limit missile defense, refuses to negotiate in good faith regarding tactical nuclear weapons or continues to aid and abet Iran, the administration should immediately withdraw from the treaty.

New START is historic, though not in a good way:"
