Nuclear Testing

I am firmly against reopening the Nevada test range. It is unnecessary and it exposes Americans to dangerous and lethal radiation. An estimated 80,000 Americans have suffered from the effects of past nuclear testing, of those an estimated 15,000 died. Underground testing offers no guarantees of public safety, and is certainly not safer than no testing at all.

I am against renewed nuclear testing
