Support Arms Control, Not Nuclear Weapons

https://secure.ucsusa.org/a/2023-1-12-ax-arms-control-newsletter We are at a crossroads as a global community: either we support arms control and reduce the role that nuclear weapons play in our security, or we double down on a dangerous and costly nuclear arms race that makes us all less safe.

Arms control is a powerful tool for managing nuclear risk. We need it in this present moment, even in the midst of—and perhaps especially because of—the war in Ukraine, with its heightened risk for conflict between nuclear-armed states. And we need a future with more arms control in it. In August, President Biden expressed readiness to negotiate a new agreement before our last bilateral arms control treaty with Russia expires. We need to push the Biden administration to make sure that happens.

Urge your members of Congress to support nuclear arms control and urge the Biden administration to take action toward a world free from nuclear weapons.
