Like the Mexico City policy, I have a feeling that membership in the Paris Climate Agreement is going to be one of those things that changes each time parties change hands. If the next Republican president withdraws the US from the PCA again, obviously the US loses more credibility than last time as we will be seen as an unreliable party.

Can Congress, sans the filibuster, pass legislation to make US membership in the PCA permanent? Or would a 2/3 requirement in the Senate be needed if the bill is deemed a treaty?
