A new report entitled “Bombs vs. Budgets” examines the nuclear weapons lobby. According to Study author William Hartung:
“…the nuclear arms lobby and its allies on Capitol Hill are
seeking to block reductions in systems we don’t need at prices we
can’t afford. This unnecessary spending is being pressed by some
of the very same members of Congress who have argued that deficit
reduction and greater spending discipline should be our top
priorities.”
On the June 19, 2012 edition of Tell Somebody
this Tuesday at 6pm, William Hartung talks about the report and the
role of the Kansas City Plant in the nuclear weapons complex.
Also, in the wake of the
Kansas City, Missouri city council's resoulution in support of
KC Move To Amend's call to overturn Citizens United, Mark Hays,
campaign coordinator for Public Citizen’s Democracy Is For People
campaign talks about Resolutions Week, a push by Public
Citizen and partner organizations to pass local and state
resolutions nationwide.
