Comment The WTO and the Constitution (Score 2) 1002
The World Trade Organization can order the United States and its other members to change their laws. It can inflict penalties if they fail to do so. Hence, the WTO now has a significant role in deciding how US law is determined - what we might call US "meta-law". But this, of course, is largely what the US Constitution addresses, and modifications to Constitutional procedures require Constitutional amendment, not simple treaties. Do you think US membership in the WTO is therefore Constitutional? Do you support the end of this membership?
