No Nukes! No Wars! Fund Human Needs! Protect the Environment!
Submitted by ujpadmin on Sat, 03/20/2010 - 5:28pm.Despite the global hopes raised by President Obama's Prague speech last spring, the Obama administration has recently requested the largest budget ever for nuclear weapons activities -- a 14% increase in spending for nuclear warheads in fiscal year 2011; a $5 billion increase over the next five years. In a time of twin global economic and environmental crises and growing competition over natural resources, the dangers of conflicts among nuclear-armed states are increasing. (Click here to download a report on the nuclear budget.) We can't afford to wait decades more for the elimination of nuclear weapons.
On the eve of the UN's Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty (NPT) Review Conference, thousands of people from around the world will gather in New York City for a weekend of inspiring and powerful activities to demand that President Obama and the leaders of the other nuclear-armed nations commence negotiations on a treaty to eliminate nuclear weapons within our lifetimes.
Please join us for the international conference April 30-May 1 and a rally, march and peace and music festival May 2! Or come for the Sunday rally, march and festival by reserving a seat on the UJP bus.
