First time in US history that a lame duck congress has passed a treaty ________________________________________

Got to call you on that one.

GATT (Uruguay) Treaty was passed on Dec 1, 1994 during lame duck.

You may have missed it, because the "news" that day was Jeffery Dahmer getting beat to death in jail.

It will be the first time a nuclear arms treaty has been ratified in a Lame Duck session.

Actually I was passing on something said on Fox last night or this morning, I guess they were wrong.
