Policy Proposal #1: Election Integrity
An AFLDS Policy Proposal for Citizens and Policymakers
Our election system is the foundation that holds our Republic accountable to the people of the United States of America. The integrity of our elections, like any foundation, must be stable and trustworthy for the country to operate within the true democratic framework of the United States Constitution and the constitutions of each individual state.
POSITION STATEMENT
Freedom is the legacy handed down to us by our forefathers who gave their lives to acquire and protect it. That hard-fought freedom is in jeopardy when We The People do not have a voice. We choose the people in government positions, and it is up to us to make sure they uphold the interests of our citizens. When the authority vested in the government no longer represents We The People, it is no longer an institution governed by the people.
According to the Merriam-Webster dictionary, the definition of tyranny is oppressive power exerted by government. A tyrannical government’s objective is to distinguish the voice of the people. Thus, fair elections are far from the goal of a tyrannical government. A tyrannical government takes power regardless of the wishes of the citizens
Elections in the United States of America must be dependable, accurate, and fair. Trustworthy elections shape the framework of the Republic and guarantee our Freedom. Events over the past decade have proven that the integrity of our elections has fallen into disrepair, much like those in a third-world country or a communist regime. Legislative changes on election integrity must occur at the federal and local levels.
MAIL-IN BALLOTS
The use of mail-in ballots has exploded, most notably since 2020. Many states are sending mail-in ballots to all or most voters. States are lifting requirements that voters have a valid reason for voting absentee, and are lifting requirements that absentee ballot envelopes be notarized, witnessed, or that voters provide any type of identification. These changes have opened the door for abuse and cheating.
Policy: Voters should be required to provide the circumstances that require an absentee ballot to receive the ballot. Blanket mailers for voting open the door for catastrophe and must be prohibited. Unsupervised dropboxes should never be utilized in any jurisdiction.
VOTER IDENTIFICATION REQUIREMENTS
At the federal level, voter ID is required before a person is permitted to register to vote, receive a ballot, or vote in a US election. It has been claimed that the requirement of identification at the time of voting may be discriminatory against minority voters because they are less likely to possess a government-issued ID.
In this day and age, most people are required to have some sort of official identification. The burden placed upon voters to produce identification is small. Voter identification proves that voters are citizens of the United States, and ensures that each citizen gets one vote. This ensures the integrity of the process.
Policy: To ensure the integrity of each ballot, a government-issued identification must be required at the time of voting, even for mail-in ballots.
ELECTRONIC VOTING AND ELECTRONIC COUNTING
Let’s address and compare electronic voting (EV) and electronic counting (EC). With electronic voting (EV), no paper ballot can be referenced at a later date, used in recounts, or election challenges. The data is in the “hands” of the computer and there is no ability to analyze or question the data once it is collected. When electronic counting (EC) is utilized, a paper ballot is marked either mechanically or by laser marking. The voter may review the ballot for accuracy, and the paper ballot is maintained for some time after an election.
Electronic voting may make things faster and may save money. However, it makes cheating easier and is more susceptible to hacking. There is no record, but it is more susceptible to hacks and cheating. If a vote is challenged or found faulty, there is no record to verify the results.
Policy: Paper ballots should always be required. Electronic counting is acceptable because in that instance the machines simply do the counting. The paper trail remains to allow audits, recounting, and corrections. The cost of printing and storage is well worth the protection of the integrity of ballots.
CALL TO ACTION
We must contact our legislators and demand these actions be implemented. Find your local lawmakers here:

Issue Brief: WHO Pandemic Treaty
An AFLDS Issue Brief for Citizens and Policymakers
STATEMENT OF POSITION
During what some have called “the eye of the storm” in terms of the global pandemic crisis, the governing body of the World Health Organization, the World Health Assembly, is quietly planning to vote on an amendment to WHO’s International Health Regulations in just a few days, on May 22-28, 2022. This amendment, proposed by officials from the Biden Administration, will serve to give away our country’s healthcare system, national sovereignty, and personal freedoms to the WHO on a silver platter. America’s Frontline Doctors (AFLDS) strongly opposes the creation and implementation of any treaty or international instrument that governs world pandemic preparedness and response.
HOW DID WE GET HERE?
Our own U.S. government has thrown us to the wolves once again. On January 18, 2022, the United States of America through the Biden administration and Loyce Pace of the United States Department of Health and Human Services, quietly submitted proposed amendments to WHO’s International Health Regulation (IHR).Loyce Pace, 2021 The proposed amendments are on the agenda for the World Health Assembly (WHA), the governing legislative body for WHO, to be held May 22-28, 2022.[1] The proposed amendments were not made known to the public until Sunday, April 10, 2022, whereupon WHO acted stealthily with a virtually nonexistent public participation process. The WHO invited video and written submissions which were due by 5:00 p.m. on April 13, 2022. Unless We The People activate, these amendments will be enacted at the World Health Assembly between May 22-28, 2022. If the proposed amendments are allowed to pass, there is a six-month grace period following amendment approval during which countries may withdraw their approval. However, it is highly unlikely that withdrawal of these amendments will occur during this grace period. Just as countries never return the power they take; this global power will likely come to fruition at the end of this grace period. The WHO’s plan is for these amendments to go into effect during the World Health Assembly in 2024.
WHO IS “WHO”?
The World Health Organization was founded on April 7, 1948, and is a specialized agency of the United Nations. The WHO claims that they are a global organization, made up of over 8,000 professionals including the “world’s leading health experts.”
Who IS WHO’s fearless leader? Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus. And, while one would think a corporation designed to be the nation’s leader in public health would be headed by a physician, Tedros has a Ph.D. in philosophy. He is the former Chief Minister of Health of Ethiopia and was tightly aligned with a leftwing organization that was classified as a terrorist organization in his home country. He was promoted and supported by China. China was embarrassed in 2003 by the WHO exposing its role in the SARS pandemic. In 2020 Tedros delivered for the Chinese government, praising China for its “new standard for outbreak control.” We highly suggest you review more concerning details about Tedros in an article by the Observer Research Foundation entitled Dr. Cover-up: Tedros Adhanom’s controversial journey to the WHO.[2]
The WHO is funded in two ways. First, funds come through hefty, yearly fees paid by the countries that partner with the WHO. The United States is one of the WHO’s top donors, contributing $730 million in 2021. Secondly, funds come through private donors. One of the biggest donors to the WHO will surely ring a bell… Bill Gates. The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation is the second-largest donor to the WHO with donations of nearly $780 million in 2021.[3] Surely, this should make us all pause about the real objectives of this organization.
WHAT WILL THE PROPOSED AMENDMENTS CHANGE?
The proposed amendments stand to change everything, and we lose a lot if we remain complacent. Essentially, the proposed amendments give power to the Director-General of WHO (Tedros) which would give him the right to declare health emergencies at will and act on his own. The WHO would have the power to decide what constitutes a “pandemic” and to decide quarantine measures on a global scale. WHO would control the development and safety of new treatments and would decide vaccine mandates for each country! The WHO has already stealthily changed the definition of a pandemic from a disease that causes a lot of death worldwide to a disease that occurs in many countries worldwide. Just so we are clear, the proposed amendments empower the corrupt Director-General to unilaterally declare a health emergency in any nation even against the opinion of that nation for any illness that is widespread. And keep in mind that the WHO preamble defines its area of concern so broadly it easily encompasses war, child development, education, racial justice, etc.
THE PROPOSED AMENDMENTS MUST BE SOUNDLY DEFEATED.
It is the position of America’s Frontline Doctors that the World Health Organization (WHO) should be nothing more than a debating society with no authority to make or enforce its recommendations. As AFLDS has advocated for nearly two years medical advice should be by individual, between a trusted healthcare provider and the patient. Healthcare is far too complicated to be handled at any level other than that of the provider and patient. It most certainly should not be governed on a global scale by a private organization of industry leaders in big pharma, public health experts, and The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. No single organization should be granted this kind of power, ever.
First and foremost, any rules governing health should require the enactment of legislation in each individual country. No small group can serve as the mind of an entire profession. No group of patients can serve as a representative group of all patients. The WHO should never be granted the power to do anything other than make reports and recommendations to be considered by individual governments for the enactment of legislation.
Peter Breggin, MD, and Ginger Ross Breggin authored a comprehensive report on May 4, 2022, entitled Biden Handing Over U.S. Sovereignty to WHO.[4]
In the conclusion of his report, Dr. Breggin eloquently stated what must be done to prevent the WHA from approving the proposed amendments:
We must immediately mount an international campaign, especially focused within America, to force the U.S. to withdraw these amendments before they come to a vote. Otherwise, America and the nations of the world will take a giant stride toward forfeiting national sovereignty to WHO and the U.N. In reality; they will be forfeiting their sovereign powers to the global predators who rule the U.N. and WHO, including the Chinese Communist Party and supporters of the Great Reset, like Bill Gates, Klaus Schwab, and giant foundations and corporations — all of whom benefit from weakening or destroying the sovereignty of the Western nations. Western civilization, and mainly the United States, is all that stands in strong opposition to the globalist takeover of the world, called the New World Order or the Great Reset. (Id.)
CONCLUSION
Despite all that we have been through in the last two years, there has never been a more pressing issue. The World Health Organization is gearing up to extend its power for the “next pandemic.” Remember, we are in the eye of the storm. The powers at being are working harder than ever to achieve totalitarian control of you and your family. The time to act is NOW.
In the history of humankind, no pathogen has ever wiped out the human race. The fear that has been so carefully cultivated is being utilized to justify this move. We do not need an emergency action on pathogens. An international instrument that governs world pandemic preparedness and response is not necessary. The WHO conveniently skipped the question of whether or not the amendments are needed, and jumped directly to addressing what the amendments should include.
AFLDS is sounding the alarm for immediate action. We The People must immediately bombard the White House and all federal legislators. Please contact your legislators IN WASHINGTON now and pressure them concerning the dire consequences of this amendment. Remember to include your name with the city and state you reside in. Information for YOUR legislator can be found at this link: https://www.usa.gov/elected-officials/
Please also submit written comments to the HHS Office of Global Affairs at the World Council for Health link here: https://worldcouncilforhealth.org/campaigns/stop-the-who/2022/05/24-hours-leftcomment-at-the-stakeholder-listening-session-for-75th-world-healthassembly/74090/#written-comment
Please be advised and on notice that AFLDS will publicly oppose any legislator that does not take action to block the proposed amendments and stop this dire threat to the Constitution of the United States of America.
