The Declaration states: "we must join with others to bring forth a new world order . . . Narrow notions of national sovereignty must not be permitted to curtail that obligation. " She stated that the document: ". . . calls for the surrender of our national sovereignty to international organizations. It declares that our economy should be regulated by international authorities. It proposes that we enter a 'new world order' that would redistribute the wealth created by the American people."
