Urgent Action Needed! Support the Radiation Exposure Compensation Act (RECA) Today! Only 2 days left!

https://nirs.salsalabs.org/recavoteyes/index.html

The Radiation Exposure Compensation Act (RECA) is crucial for providing cancer screenings and compensation to communities harmed by US nuclear weapons testing and uranium mining. Without action, RECA will expire in just 2 days. We need YOUR help to pass a stronger RECA bill!

The government knowingly exposed people to unsafe levels of radiation by detonating hundreds of nuclear weapons. Congress has a responsibility to pass the strongest RECA legislation possible to ensure survivors receive proper compensation. The RECA bill we’re fighting for (S.3853) will:

✅ Include more communities previously excluded, some for nearly 80 years
✅ Improve benefits and increase compensation for the first time in 35 years
✅ Include downwind communities of the Trinity Test in New Mexico and additional uranium mining communities

✉️ Email your Representatives NOW and tell them to vote YES on a stronger RECA!
