THE PARENTAL RIGHTS AMENDMENT
SECTION 1
The liberty of parents to direct the upbringing and education of their children is a fundamental right.
SECTION 2
Neither
the United States nor any State shall infringe upon this right without
demonstrating that its governmental interest as applied to the person
is of the highest order and not otherwise served.
SECTION 3
No
treaty may be adopted nor shall any source of international law be
employed to supersede, modify, interpret, or apply to the rights
guaranteed by this article.
Would a Treaty Overrule the Parental Rights Amendment?
If a treaty will override even our Constitution, what is the point in passing an amendment?
The Parental Rights Amendment will override a treaty both in American courts (domestic law) and in international courts (international law).
All Constitutional provisions override treaties in American courts. This is not a change. The Parental Rights Amendment follows this consistent principle established both by the language of Article VI of our Constitution and by Supreme Court decision (Reid v. Covert, 354 US 1 (1957)).
But, under international law, treaties override all forms of a nation’s law, including its constitution, unless the constitutional provision concerns the ability to make treaties. Because of our language in Section Three prohibiting treaties from being made on the subject of parental rights, this provision of our Constitution should prevail even in international courts.
