Bonnie Raitt, Jackson Browne, and Graham Nash call for action against new nuclear loan guarantees

Nash, Raitt, and Browne, flanked by environmental and congressional allies, at a Nukefree.org press conference against nuclear loan guarantees on Capitol Hill, 2007"We may be on the brink...of stopping the US nuclear industry from building new reactors," write musicians Bonnie Raitt, Jackson Browne, and Graham Nash in a new posting on the Nukefree.org website. Join their call by phoning your two U.S. Senators and your U.S. Representative via the Capitol Switchboard at (202) 224-3121 and urging them to block the $36 billion in new nuclear loan guarantees proposed by the Obama administration in the Fiscal Year 2012 federal budget, with the first congressional subcommittee votes expected to happen in the next few weeks.
