Lab Chromium Contamination Confirmed on San Ildefonso Pueblo - LANL’s expanding nuclear weapons programs fuel the new nuclear arms race & rob funding from vitally needed cleanup that would permanently protect our irreplaceable groundwater. nukewatch.org/press-releas...
The independent Defense Nuclear Facilities Safety Board recently released its Review of the Los Alamos Plutonium Facility Documented Safety Analysis: "DOE & LANL should consider prioritizing safety-related infrastructure projects" - Hint: They're not.

It took a broad coalition, including Indigenous, Latinx, environmental and anti-nuclear groups, along with expert legal advocacy to apply constant pressure against Holtec's now cancelled plans to dump high-level radioactive waste in New Mexico beyondnuclearinternational.org/2025/10/19/t...
Join Us Monday Oct 27 for a Conversation Toward #Nuclear #Disarmament! Featuring Santa Fe #Archbishop John C. Wester and NukeWatch New Mexico Director Jay Coghlan at Santa Maria de la Paz Catholic Community from 6:00-8:00 p.m.

Jay Coghlan, the executive director of [@nukewatchnm.bsky.social] said ..."As a baseline, the nuclear safety officers have always been understaffed. There is simply not enough federal oversight as is. And then you’re talking about furloughing more'"
👏 Powerful documentation of how our grantees worked within the legal system to ensure the public has a say in the U.S.’ production of plutonium pits. Learn more about their victory & case from our friends at @nukewatchnm.bsky.social & Tri-Valley CAREs 📽️ ⬇️

Join Us on Monday for a workshop on how to comment on NNSA's Scoping Period: Programmatic EIS on Expanded Plutonium Pit Production! This is an important opportunity to comment on a national plan that essentially means nuclear weapons forever. Let's protest this together with your help and comments!
For additional context ➡️ "The National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) is moving forward with plans to produce plutonium pits—the bomb cores of thermonuclear weapons—at Los Alamos National Laboratory in New Mexico and the Savannah River Site in South Carolina despite no demonstrated need."
One week from today 🗓️ grantees @ucs.org, @nukewatchnm.bsky.social, and Tri-Valley CAREs are hosting a webinar on how to submit a comment to ensure the NNSA fully considers the risks that come with expanded plutonium pit production. Register ⬇️

Nuclear Weapons Programs Slated for 53% Increase: Topline DOE budget #s have been released under the headline of “Unleashing a Golden Era of Energy Dominance and Energy Innovation and Protecting the Nation.” 65% of the proposed $46B budget is earmarked for nuclear weapons agency NNSA nukewatch.org
A black-and-white photo shows a technician standing beside a large spherical metal object being assembled in a lab, representing a nuclear weapon core. Overlaid text reads: "The US plans to spend $38 billion on new explosive cores for nuclear weapons." The logo of the Union of Concerned Scientists appears in the bottom left corner.

As the US prepares to spend as much as $38 billion to produce hundreds of new explosive cores, called plutonium pits, to arm new nuclear weapons, our new analysis argues new pits aren’t necessary to maintain the existing US nuclear arsenal.
