Help the (Revamped) NukeFree Defeat New Nuke Loan Guarantees

The Revamped NukeFree.org Welcomes You to (Again) Defeat Nuke Power Loan Guarantees


Once again loan guarantees---this time $36 billion---for new nuclear power plants are being pushed by the White House and Congress.

Once again we at NukeFree.org are joined together to stop them.

Please join us again at this link: http://nukefree.org/nirs-tell-congress-no-36-billion-loan-guarantees-oth... to demand the Senate delete this $36 billion giveaway from the 2012 Budget and the 2011 Continuing Resolution.

And please JOIN US at the Revamped NukeFree.org website, which has been upgraded to better serve the on-going work of the safe energy movement.

From 2007 until now YOU have helped prevent up to $50 billion in proposed new nuke loan guarantees. This on-going victory has helped keep the so-called "nuclear renaissance" in the Dark Ages where it belongs.

Now, when budgets are being slashed across the board, this new $36 billion demand is beyond absurd.

The Senate holds the balance. Please click this link ( http://nukefree.org/nirs-tell-congress-no-36-billion-loan-guarantees-oth... or call or write your Senator, demanding this huge sum of money not be squandered on building unsafe, unreliable, uneconomic and unneeded new nukes.

We are NOT asking for money. This is NOT a fundraising appeal.

We strongly believe that if we win again, we may finally push the nuclear industry over the brink. Renewables are very quickly pricing atomic reactors totally out of any conceivable market for energy.

If we stop these proposed new billions beyond 2012, we may finally bury the prospects for this failed industry.

We welcome you to visit NukeFree.org regularly for the on-going stream of news and action alerts.

Thank you so much. We look forward to a great green victory party in the near future.

Be NukeFree!!!
