Looking at the old resolution, we cannot help but agree with the repeal. While it is commendable as a policy, it is remarkably useless as an action by the UN. The delegate encourages REPEALing this resoultion, and the development of a resolution that would set out a course of action to achieve the vision encouraged by the current resolution. |

Try as I might, I just can't find a 'Northeast corner of the U.S.A.' anywhere on Nationstates... just one reason why we should REPEAL AWAY. |

Well... I I'm sure some nation has an area that can be abbreviated to USA and which has a northesatern corner. I have no idea where but I'm sure it would exist, but yes. REPEAL, If the region specified is not well enough known it should not be in a UN resolution |

Repeal, but replace it with a better version. |

As good intentioned as it may have been, I don't like the idea of enforcing nations to do anything. But on the other hand, I do agree with Lamoni on this one, a better worded one would be a boon. REPEAL. |

With a 6-0 vote, the delegate will vote to REPEAL this resolution. |
