Rayburn News Conference NUCLEAR WEAPONS WATCHDOGS GIVE PRES. OBAMA MIXED GRADES
ON NEW WEAPONS DEVELOPMENT, WASTE CLEANUP, & REACTOR FUNDING
President Barack Obama today received a mixed report card for his
Administration’s first-year policies relating to nuclear weapons
production, waste cleanup and reactor funding. Grades presented by the
Alliance for Nuclear Accountability (ANA) at a Capitol Hill news
conference ranged from an “A” for keeping his campaign promise to
terminate the Yucca Mountain radioactive waste dump to an “F” for
proposing to increase taxpayer subsidies for construction of new nuclear
reactors. ANA is a national network of nearly three dozen groups
representing the concerns of communities downwind and downstream from
U.S. nuclear weapons sites. read more... for further information:

There is broad, bipartisan support among political leaders and national security experts for negotiating a follow-on START treaty with Russia. Further mutual reductions in U.S. and Russian Cold War-era nuclear arsenals are considered critical for maintaining strategic stability in our relations, enhancing the global nonproliferation regime, and, in effect, advancing U.S. security. Despite this widespread consensus in favor of a new START, some analysts have advanced unsubstantiated myths, unfounded concerns, and political slogans as negotiators have worked toward a treaty. With the Senate poised to consider the new treaty once finalized in the coming months, it is vital that these misleading and irresponsible claims be debunked, ensuring that the debate is grounded in the facts. read more... |
