Musicians Bonnie Raitt, Jackson Browne and Graham Nash have spoken out against nuclear power through the website NUKEFREE.ORG. In their statement they say "We may be on the brink of stopping the US nuclear industry from building new reactors". They mention that Japan and Germany have turned away from nuclear power, and urge citizens to contact the White House and their US Senators and Representatives "as often and as forcefully as you can".
Bonnie, Jackson and Graham specifically point out a $36 billion dollar loan guarantee by the US government being sought by the nuclear energy lobby industry. These decisions will be in front of the Appropriations subcommittee as early as June 2nd, so JTMP urges everyone to contact their representatives as soon as possible, and speak out on this important issue.
