CRPD: Thank you FCNL for tracking.

RantWoman is feeling REALLY grateful to the faithful Friends of FCNL for even caring about the Convention on the Rights of People with Disabilities! RantWoman knowingly puts herself in the way of tidings about all sorts of matters of public life. RantWoman Appreciates having these info floods available even though she herself cannot interact with all of them. Indefatigable as RantWoman is about getting in people's faces, even RantWoman hesitates about sharing the full bounty of her concerns with others. So RantWoman is truly grateful to have tripped over this item on the way to looking for the new FCNL priorities.

The gist of the post: as with lots of other international agreements, members of the Senate declined to ratify this treaty because of fears it would impinge on "sovreignty." These same Senators have no problems with any number of international commercial ventures seeking to organize their environments to their  tastes regardless of international borders but they refuse to submit.... Sorry, RantWoman needs not to rant, jsut to be grateful to FCNL for noticing and paying attention.
