The production of nuclear weapons at the Lawrence
Livermore National Laboratories in Livermore, California has been stopped!
Tri-Valley CAREs, a nuclear watchdog group in Livermore, together with many
other organizations organizes to make sure our national representatives and
the military don't start that program again.
Why not?
- Livermore Lab has already leaked over 1 million curies of air-borne
radiation into the Bay Area biosphere. In the next fiew years the Lab
proposes to Store and work with even large quantities of radioactive
materials. We say NO!
- This year $28 million is requested to deelop the Robust Nuclear Earth
Penetrator at Livermore and Los Alamos labs. We say NO!
- At the same time, two schools in Livermore will close to save $1
million. We say NO!

while $6.6 billion is request for nuclear weapons work. We say NO!
