Another UN conspiracy?
Remember when Republican Dan Maes thought Denver?s B-cycle program was a U.N. conspiracy? Now a Colorado Springs-based church thinks a Senate bill on children is another United Nations conspiracy.
SB 12-130 creates the Office of Early Childhood and transfers several programs from within the the Department of Human Services and other agencies into the newly created office. The measure, by Sen. Linda Newell, D-Littleton, and Rep. Tom Massey, R-Poncha Springs, is awaiting debate by the full Senate.
?The liberty of parents to direct the upbringing and education of their children is a fundamental right of the family,? Wellsprings Church wrote in an e-mail opposing the bill. ?Today, there is an effort to circumvent not only US law, but the fundamental right of parents through the UN via a treaty called the UN CONVENTION ON THE RIGHTS OF THE CHILD.?
Wellspring claims the Senate bill intends to ?make the state responsible for child rearing at first ? eventually shifting the full responsibility to the state, stripping parental rights even in the home.? It also claims the bill is a ?massive abuse of government power against families, home schooling ? ?
Newell said it?s a ?complicated bill, but even more delicate are these few outliers who just don?t have the facts.?
Bikes that are part of Denver's B-Cycle program are parked in front of the City and County Building in April 2010.
Maes won the GOP nomination in 2010, but came in a distant third behind Democrat John Hickenlooper and Tom Tancredo, a former congressman who ran on a third-party ticket. Voters doubted Maes? credibility on several fronts, including his theory that then Denver Mayor? Hickenlooper?s bicycle program was part of a UN plot.
The following is the entire e-mail from WellSpring, and Newell?s response to critics:
WellSpring: Many of you were a part of WellSprings last week as we prayed about this
The liberty of parents to direct the upbringing and education of their children is a fundamental right of the family Today, there is an effort to circumvent not only US law, but the fundamental right of parents through the UN via a treaty called the UN CONVENTION ON THE RIGHTS OF THE CHILD.
What does this have to do with Colorado and our state government? Two years ago, I thought this more conspiracy theory as this would never by adopted by the US government. However, de-facto implementation is now being attempted by making the foundation of the treaty Colorado state law via SB-12-130, effectively by-passing the Congressional requirement for to ratify the treaty.
Is our federal government capable of such an abuse of power?
Yes, as we?ve seen in the implementation of Nationalized Health Care. The head of HHS, Health and Human Services, says they don?t care if the Supreme Court strikes down the unconstitutional law, the federal government will simply get it done through the states. In Colorado, that mechanism is already in place through our state health care exchanges and SB-200. And we have seen just in the last few weeks in the unlawful Presidential mandate that contraceptives by provided free no matter the religious objections of the provider or the fact there is no legal right for the government to mandate what a private company or institutions provide. Yes, they are very capable of this abuse.
Two years ago, Governor Hickenlooper was briefed on the plan to bring the UN treaty to Colorado. Now, our state Legislature is working on the means to implement that plan through SB-12-130. Why care about this? If you are a parent, grandparent of just concerned about massive governmental over-reach, this bill is of great concern This bill establishes a new bureaucracy in Coloradocalled the Early Childhood and School Readiness Commission and is intended to make the state responsible for child rearing at first by: sharing child rearing responsibilities or ?co-parenting?, as it is called in Canada, every child through regulation, then, eventually shifting the full responsibility to the state, stripping parental rights even in the home.
Our Lt. Gov. Joe Garcia said ?It?s clear we need to have a birth-through-20 approach, and we can?t expect ? and can?t allow ? teachers to carry the entire burden of this incredible challenge. There is no mention of parents having any responsibility in the Lt. Governors comment.
Some of you may well recognize this as very similar to the first stages in the implementation of the UN?s attack on America families through the UN CONVENTIONS of the Child, as outlined by ParentalRights.org. The list of new powers established by SB 12-130 for the new commission is extensive, It represents state government getting much more than its nose under the parental rights tent, and opens the door wide open for federal intervention.
Who decides what is best for the child?s foundational development and what is required to become productive members of society?
Not parents according to SB12-130; it is the state who sets the stage and decides. A critical thing to remember, this bill is very short on details and those will be applied later by unelected, UNACCOUNTABLE regulatory boards, if it becomes law: And as we go through this remember. WORDS MATTER.Some of the highlights or lowlights of the bill are:
The bill creates the office of early childhood and youth development in the department of human services (DHS). The office?s functions will include:
* Operating and OVERSEEING: child care, including licensing, school readiness (you already have school boards, you elect and can control that do this), the early childhood councils; the child care assistance program; mental health consultation for children, and promoting safe and stable communities;as determined by the state.
* Reviewing the federal funding guidelines to maximum flexibility in using federal funds for early childhood programs. FEDERAL FUNDS Means FEDERAL CONTROL
IF enacted : THE EARLY CHILDHOOD SYSTEM IN COLORADO ADDRESSes THE NEEDS OF CHILDREN(as determined by the state, not the parent), INCLUDING EARLY LEARNING (with the curriculum imposed by the state, if you home school, this is a direct attack on you), CHILD HEALTH, CHILD MENTAL HEALTH, AND FAMILY SUPPORT AND PARENT EDUCATION .and honestly, that could easily read indoctrination
PROVIDING SERVICES FOR OLDER CHILDREN AND YOUTH TO ENSURE ( let that word sink in for a second?the state will ENSURE) THAT, AS THEY DEVELOP TO GROW INTO HEALTHY, EDUCATED ADULTS WHO ARE WELL-PREPARED TO POSITIVELY CONTRIBUTE TO THEIR SOCIETY (Again as determined by the state? not the parent, not the Church, but by secular unelected bureaucrats.)
STATE GOVERNMENT is TO PROVIDE AND OVERSEE services FOR CHILDREN FROM BIRTH TO EIGHT YEARS OF AGE AND THEIR FAMILIES ( The state will oversee from BIRTH).
The state will use EARLY IDENTIFICATION and INTERVENTION TO, (read to this part carefully),
IMPROVE THE STATE?S ABILITY TO SET A SOLID FOUNDATION FOR FAMILIES AND THEIR CHILDREN AS THEY CONTINUE TO DEVELOP ACADEMICALLY, PHYSICALLY, EMOTIONALLY, AND SOCIALLY. The State sets the FoundationIf this is of any concern, what can you do? For one, Pray as you are led?..
Also, Many ?liberty Groups? across the state have joined with conservative legislators and Home school associations to pressure Speaker of the House Frank McNulty to send this to a kill committee, for if it gets to the full floor, it may well pass as there is a one vote margin between the GOP and Democrats and a GOP legislator is co-sponsoring this disaster.
The Executive Director of DHS, Reggie Bicha, has offered to meet with parents who are not happy with the bill. State Sen. Lundberg and Treon Goonsen are setting that up. ?
This is a massive abuse of government power against families, home schooling and the argument can be made it is another attempt to remove GOD from America by a radicalized secular state dictating what is in the best interest of YOUR Child or Grand child.
Consider getting involved in SB 12-13. No matter where you come down on the issue, because if this becomes law, the implications will be felt by every Colorado family for decades.I encourage you to visit Parental Rights.Org on their effects in opposing the UN Treaty. Thank you for your time and your consideration.
And the response from the lawmaker:
Newell: Thank you so much for your engagement in the legislative process. As I appreciate your perspective, I also need to inform you of some of the facts about the bill. As a parent myself and the bill sponsor, I can assure you that we believe that parents are their child?s first and best teachers.
* This bill does nothing to interfere with the parent-child relationship.
* There are no changes or additions in any programs. The programs are being moved and consolidated into one office with a new title to gain efficiencies, streamline funding, and improve the outcomes for children and parents.
* All of the programs slated to be aligned by the passage of SB-130 are voluntary programs in which families may choose to participate. In fact, some of the programs are so popular that there are waiting lists for them. Parents want IN and can?t get in.
* There is no change in the local delivery of any services, but rather is an attempt to create a more efficient and effective program alignment at the state level. This enhanced alignment will strengthen communication between programs and provide more comprehensive resources to early childhood services.
* This kind of service integration is already happening in numerous local communities around the state. We?re just trying to mirror those best practices.I hope that helps clarify and allay any of your concerns. Please let me know if there?s any other question or concern I can address. Also know that you can call me, if that would be better. If you?d like to listen to the floor debate, I believe it will be on the floor on Friday morning. Thanks again for your input.
