This law is basically moot. If nation one (Receiver) does not wish to accept aid from nation two (Giver), why would Giver *want* to force unwanted generosity? Also, if Receiver starts arresting Giver's aid workers, they will not receive any assistance in the future. This type of thing is an example of letting the "market" manage itself or forcing people down a certain path.

What is worse is that the subject for this resolution is "Moral Decency" so the true effect will be an increase in faith based, "moralistic" laws aimed at decreasing civil rights.

I am opposed to this resolution, since it only seeks to enforce, and poorly, what is already universally practiced.
