On a scale of 1 to 10, how important is it that we keep working to restrict the ability of #DonaldTrump to use #nuclearweapons? (Please share this message on Twitter.) |
Yes, Donald Trump says he will go to meet with North Korea Leader Kim Jung-un by May.
. . . AND . . .
It still remains URGENT that formal steps succeed in restricting the ability of the US president to carry out a first strike with nuclear weapons.
As of today, there are 80 House members and 14 senators supporting restrictions on the ability of the US president to unilaterally call a nuclear first strike:
Co-sponsors of HR.669 "Restricting First Use of Nuclear Weapons Act of 2017" (plus bill sponsor Rep. Ted Lieu)
Co-sponsors of S.200 "Restricting First Use of Nuclear Weapons Act of 2017" (plus bill sponsor Sen. Ed Markey)
Co-sponsors of S.200 "Restricting First Use of Nuclear Weapons Act of 2017" (plus bill sponsor Sen. Ed Markey)
Are your representative and senators supporting this bill?
This is not the end of the struggle to #restrictnukes. It's just the beginning . . . .
