One day, the atomic bomb survivors from Hiroshima and Nagasaki will no longer be among us as witnesses to history.
But with a strong culture of remembrance and continued commitment, new generations in Japan are carrying forward the experience and the message of the witnesses. They are inspiring and educating people around the world. In this way they are helping to maintain the nuclear taboo – a precondition of a peaceful future for humanity.

☢️ Republicans blocked the Radiation Exposure Compensation Act expansion AGAIN.
They just discarded our bipartisan amendment that would have extended and expanded RECA.
People are suffering.
@SpeakerJohnson, #LetUsVote to bring justice to radiation-exposed victims ahora!

MEDICAL STUDENTS AGAINST THE BOMB🗣️
IPPNW students from 6 countries participated in last week's #nuclearbanweek. From the YouthMSP with @Youth4TPNW, #MSPTV with ICAN, meetings with diplomats, and more, our leaders made it clear that the #nuclearban is the key to our common future

Americans poisoned by our government’s nuclear tests & waste are set to lose the lifesaving help they’ve relied on for over 30 years. RECA must be reauthorized in this NDAA before it expires in just a few months. Thousands of radiation victims depend on this program to survive
