Letter from the Director (12/18/04): We invite you to join and support our work!
Dear friends and colleagues We are living in a historic time, with humanity hanging in the balance. On one side, there is militarism, war, injustice, and environmental destruction; on the other, our efforts for justice, environmental sanity, and the rule of law. If we do not succeed in stopping the evolution of nuclear weapons in this country, we cannot stop nuclear proliferation anywhere. It is essential to do this right here in New Mexico. No one is going to do this for us. Please consider joining us in our work, or supporting our programs financially. More

New Mexicans Call for Nuclear
Disarmament!
We invite you to join more than 140 businesses, 25 nonprofit organizations,
and the roughly 1,100 New Mexicans (as of January 1) who have joined their voices
to call for a) nuclear disarmament pursuant to existing treaties, b) an end
to nuclear weapons production, c) a stop to nuclear waste disposal at Los Alamos
National Laboratory (LANL), and d) investment in people and families -- as opposed
to preparations for nuclear war.
It is very important for we New Mexicans to register our resistance, because
our failure to do so will be interpreted by our political leaders as assent
to all things nuclear.
We are finding tremendous support for the Call. The challenge we face, in our
information-saturated world, is not agreement but simply in reaching people
in the first place. If you are reading these words, wont you consider
joining this Call?
This Call continues and augments more than 3,000 letters already sent to our
Governor requesting an end to nuclear waste disposal at LANL.
