The Senate Should Block the White House's End Runs on the ABM Treaty,

Abstract

This report asserts that the Clinton Administration by refusing to submit new ABM Treaty agreements to the Senate for review raises questions about the intent and constitutionality of these actions. Also, it is suggested that all Senators regardless of their belief on the implications of these new agreements, should all agree that the refusal to submit them for Senate ratification violates their prerogative to review treaties. It is also argued that Clinton's policy regarding the ABM Treaty would leave Americans vulnerable to missile attack.
