This is unreal! The parts of Utah that were left out of RECA as well as other expansion areas received higher levels of Fallout! They would all be covered for the first time under the @HawleyMO/ @SenatorLujan RECA Bill! We already stripped- down the price so we could all stay in!

I’m told House Republicans are considering sneaking a stripped-down version of RECA - covering only part of Utah and nothing else - into the CR. This would be an incredible betrayal to the hundreds of thousands of good people poisoned by their government

Are you still allowed to post about NYTimes articles on Twitter? My piece outlines the Oppenheimer Project's goals: war doesn't work, and nuclear arms don't make us safer. The philosophy behind nuclear deterrence is flawed, yet the science itself is so powerful it can save humanity if used for good like nuclear power & medicine. #NuclearScience #Peace"

☢️Signs & fences are two ways the government ​​protects & warns current/future generations of the hazards at nuclear waste sites. The EPA states, radioactive waste disposal sites shall be marked by signs, fences & other methods to indicate the location & danger for 10,000 years.
