“…(E)ven if Secretary of State Clinton signs onto the Arms Trade Treaty on our country’s behalf, two-thirds of the Senate must vote in favor of it before it’s approved. This treaty would require 67 votes to make it past the Senate, which is extremely unlikely to happen. As of now, 58 senators have already signed onto letters directly opposing the treaty, and I’m one of them. In fact, yet another letter opposing the treaty is currently being circulated around the Senate. I’ll be signing on, as will an expected 60-plus other senators. So, the treaty isn’t a threat to either American autonomy or the Second Amendment — because the Senate largely stands against it, and we’re the gatekeepers on this one.” – Nebraska Senator Ben Nelson
