The Daily Brief: Legislative Snapshot Saturday, December 3, 2022 "For the kingdom is the LORD'S: and he is the governor among the nations." (Psalm 22:28) "We the People" "Standing United Together . . . Under the Cross of Christ" Today's Top Story  RED ALERT: New WHO Pandemic Treaty in Final Stages, Would Overule US Constitution WATCH VIDEO NOW! Today we bring you a truly bombshell interview and critical story about the WHO’s new pandemic treaty which is specifically written to overrule the United States Constitution and all domestic laws in every nation, worldwide. How do we know this? Because treaty expert Dr. Francis Boyle studied the proposed treaty language and lays it all out in today’s hard-hitting interview (see below). He’s the author of the Biological Weapons Anti-Terrorism Act of 1989, and an expert in reading and writing treaties. And today, he issues his strongest warning yet made public. Dr. Boyle is the author of a recent book entitled, “Resisting Medical Tyranny,” and in today’s interview, he openly warns that this new WHO treaty — dubbed “WHO CA+” — is designed to unleash a global medical dictatorship that would overrule your local doctors, hospitals and clinics, forcing them to follow WHO directives on things like masks, quarantines, social distancing and economic lockdowns. Read the treaty for yourself at this link from Keionline.org: https://www.keionline.org/wp-content/uploads/ADVANCE_for_16_November_A_INB3_3_E.pdf If that link disappears, we have a backup copy at NN servers: https://www.naturalnews.com/Files/ADVANCE_for_16_November_A_INB3_3_E.pdf In essence, the new WHO pandemic treaty turns the entire world into a China-style medical police state where sovereign nations, states and individuals themselves have no recognized health freedom rights whatsoever. Stated another way, if Biden signs this treaty, what China did to its own people during COVID lockdowns will soon be coming to America.

We pray that this news will go FAR and WIDE and that the alarm will be sounded! We pray that MANY INTERCESSORS will come against this treaty and do the spiritual warfare! We pray that many will SPEAK OUT against this treaty! We pray that Biden will NOT sign this treaty! In Yeshua's name, amen! There is Still Time to Defeat H.R. 8404! The mis-named “Respect for Marriage Act '', H.R. 8404, is headed back to the House of Representatives for a final vote of reconciliation. We have been alerting you to the dangers of the bill and want to make sure your voice is heard on the risks associated with the passing this bill. The Senate passed the legislation this week with an attached amendment that has fooled many into thinking it protects religious freedom, but there are no real protections for individuals or organizations. It leaves the door open for regulators and the courts to become the arbiters of whether those who honor true marriage can adhere to their conscience or must bow to government dictates on how marriage is defined. Please contact your House Representative TODAY to urge them to vote “NO” on H.R. 8404. If this bill doesn’t pass the reconciliation vote, it dies in the House and is stopped from heading to the President’s desk. Please see below to use our easy tool to make your voice heard.  (Source: MyFaithVotes.org)  Urge your US Representative to Oppose the Deceptively Named “Respect for Marriage Act” The so-called “Respect for Marriage Act” is being sent back to the House of Representatives for a final vote of reconciliation after an amended version of the bill passed the Senate yesterday, 61-36. While the title “Respect for Marriage” sounds as if this federal legislation affirms and supports marriage, it will, in fact, redefine it by law and place individuals, churches, businesses, and organizations who honor traditional marriage at risk of lawsuits, IRS investigation, and  government punishment. The "Respect for Marriage Act"  H.R. 8404 is set to REQUIRE everyone to esteem ANY type of  "pseudo-marriage” – even marriage between an adult and child. It puts Christians who hold a  biblical view of marriage in the crosshairs of culture and under threat of civil action through its broad enforcement mechanisms. > > > Read more and learn how YOU can still take action by going here, (Source: MyFaithVotes.org)  Recent Floor Activity Daily Digests – House • Senate — Prayers — Committee Reports Senate — Daily Leader Remarks • Actions begun, passed, declined U.S. Senate passes same-sex marriage bill (H.R. 8404) • with 12 Republicans • bill tramples faith • Democrats political reality • The GOP's drift • Mike Lee Outlines How Respect for Marriage Act Will Affect People of Faith Senate votes to avert costly rail strike (80-15) • rejects two-month cool-off period (S.Amdt. 6503) • rejects proposal to give rail workers seven days of paid sick leave (H.Con.Res. 119) • Union leader says fight 'far from over' for paid sick leave • bill is rare rift between Democrats, unions • Republicans flirt with economic populism House — Weekly Leader Colloquy • Bills • Actions passed House holds moment of silence for late-Rep.

On Thursday, the House will meet at 9 a.m. for legislative business.

The House will also consider Senate amendments to H.R. 7776, the James M. Inhofe National Defense Authorization Act for 2023. Additionally, the House will consider two important immigration bills: H.R. 3648, the EAGLE Act, sponsored by Representative Zoe Lofgren, to phase out the per country cap on employment-based immigrant visas, with no increase in the total number, and Representative Takano's H.R. 7946, the Veteran Service Recognition Act.
