Merry Christmas: UN Declares Arms Trade Treaty to Go Into Effect Dec. 24 un.org/disarmament/ATT/ ATT (The Arms Trade Treaty) https://unoda-web.s3.amazonaws/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/English7.pdf Arguably, the Arms Trade Treaty would become the law of the United States if the Senate were to ratify the treaty. While that is the process that the Constitution establishes for the implementation of treaties, fundamental principles of construction and constitutional law dictate that no treaty that violates the Constitution can become the supreme law of the land. In the case of the UN’s Arms Trade Treaty, there is no doubt that regardless of presidential signatures or congressional consent, this treaty cannot pass constitutional muster and therefore will never be the valid law of the land.
