Summary

Declares that it is the sense of the Senate that: (1) the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child is incompatible with the God-given right and responsibility of parents to raise their children; (2) the Convention has the potential to severely restrict States and the Federal Government in their efforts to protect children and enhance family life; (3) the U.S. Constitution is the ultimate guarantor of rights and privileges to every American, including children; and (4) the President should not sign and transmit the Convention to the Senate.
