Department of Energy Needs to Hear From You - Before April 30th

November 21, 2009 Subject: To Whom it May Concern (regarding SPEIS) The decision to transform the U.S. nuclear complex must reflect the will of the American people. The majority of us, 79%, want that the U.S. to do more to eliminate nuclear weapons. Simply put, the Department of Energy should be putting their resources into nuclear cleanup and "green" energy research, not expanding their weapons program. It is particularly disturbing that, in the face of Congress' recent rejection of the Reliable Replacement Warhead program, the SPEIS still refers to a goal of creating 120-125 new warheads every year. These new warheads are not only unwanted, they are also unnecessary. Last year, the Jason's Report showed that the current U.S. nuclear stockpile will remain reliable for at least another 70 years. There is no reason to rush into a costly new program to build unnecessary and unwanted nuclear weapons – especially before congressional and administration mandated nuclear policy reviews are completed. With so many unresolved issues around nuclear waste storage, employee safety and compensation, as well as the popular will for reducing nuclear weapons it doesn't make sense for U.S. taxpayers to invest in a new generation of nuclear weapons facilities. We will add your signature from the information you provide.
