Last April the U.S. and Russia signed the new Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty, which puts us one step closer to eliminating nuclear weapons. Together, the U.S. and Russia possess almost 95% of the world’s strategic nuclear weapons, and the Treaty will cut these nuclear arsenals by one-third. But, for the Treaty to enter into force it must be ratified by both countries, which means that two-thirds (67 votes) of the Senate must vote in favor of the Treaty.
Tell your two Senators we need New START NOW!
Together, the U.S. and Russia possess almost 95% of the world’s strategic nuclear weapons, and this Treaty will cut those nuclear arsenals by one-third. But, for the Treaty to enter into force it must be ratified by both countries, which means that we two-thirds (67 votes) of the Senate must vote in favor of the Treaty. And we need to make sure both of your Senators support New START when it comes to the floor of the Senate.
Your voice is even more critical now as opponents of reducing our nuclear arsenal are gearing up to mount fierce opposition to New START. Opponents like Senator DeMint who stated during the hearing today “New START makes America less safe.” That’s why it is so important NOW, as the Treaty moves to the Senate floor, that you make your voice heard and ask both of your Senators to put America’s national security over politics. Click here to ask your Senators to vote in favor of the Treaty today.
Thanks for all you do,
