WASHINGTON — While talking with Rep. Pete Hoekstra (R-Mich.), who’s leaving Congress to run for governor of Michigan, on Wednesday about his proposed Parental Rights Amendment — a constitutional change that would, among other things, prevent “any source of international law” to override parents’ rights — he gave me an example of how open some Democrats were to handing over American rights.

It means turning our currency over to the UN.”
Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-Minn.) has introduced legislation to prevent America from ditching the dollar for a world currency, but Hoekstra is not yet among the 31 co-sponsors.
