Renewables, not nuke waste! Speak out against environmental injustice

NM Governor Michelle Lujan GrishamOn July 28, New Mexico Governor, Michelle Lujan Grisham (photo, left), wrote President Trump, expressing strong opposition to both of the irradiated nuclear fuel consolidated interim storage facilities (CISFs), targeted at, or on the very border of her state. On Aug. 19, backed by solar panels, her speech to the Democratic National Convention embraced NM's multicultural identity, as a majority minority (Hispanic, Native American) state, as its greatest strength. She also championed expanding environmental protections, and a renewable energy future for which "our young people are crying out." Help defend NM against the environmental injustice of high-level radioactive waste dumping, by submitting verbal comments to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission on August 20, 25, 26, and/or Sept. 2, and submitting written comments by Sept. 22, opposing Holtec's CISF.
