Take Action for a Nuclear Weapon Free World

Nuclear Weapons represent the single largest threat to the environment in the world today. Even a limited nuclear weapon exchange will result in rapid environmental degradation that will cost billions of lives while nuclear war between the US and Russia will destroy the world as we know it.

House Resolution 77 (H.Res 77) would be a significant step towards eliminating these doomsday weapons – see reverse side for details. Please call your US House Representative and ask them to cosponsor H.Res 77. You can reach their congressional office in Washington D.C. by calling the switch board at 202-224-3121. Be sure to leave your name and address so they know you live in their district.

House Resolution 77 calls for

- Actively pursuing and concluding negotiations on a new nuclear arms control and disarmament agreement with the Russian Federation, as well as pursuing negotiations with China and other nuclear-armed states on agreements to reduce the nuclear weapon danger.

- Renouncing the option of using nuclear weapons first

- Ending the president's sole authority to launch a nuclear attack

- Taking the nuclear weapons of the United States off hair-trigger alert

- Canceling the plan to replace the nuclear arsenal of the United States with modernized, enhanced weapons.
