RALLY AND MARCH TO THE LIVERMORE NUCLEAR WEAPONS LAB - DEMAND AN END TO NUCLEAR WEAPONS. TELL THEM TO CLEAN UP THEIR MESS.
On the 59th anniversary of the U.S. atomic bombings of the Japanese cities Hiroshima and Nagasaki, we will gather at Livermore Nuclear Weapons Lab. Livermore is one of the primary facilities for nuclear weapons development in the world and has long been a site of non-violent resistance to nuclear weapons.
This year, $28 million is requested to develop the Robust Nuclear Earth Penetrator at Livermore and Los Alamos labs. Yet, two schools will close in Livermore in order to save $1 million. All over California teachers are laid off and educational programs are being cut while $6.6 billion is requested for nuclear weapons work - more than during the Cold War!
We are demanding:
*The Abolition of All Nuclear Weapons
*A Healthy Environment
*Books Not Bombs
*Jobs For Peace
*Universities for Peace
