NH Peace Action Acts to Prohibit Nuclear Weapons!

October 18, 2023 @ 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm

Free

The Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons is the first legally binding international agreement to prohibit nuclear weapons with the ultimate goal being their total elimination. To date, 92 countries have signed the treaty and 68 have ratified it, but the US government and the Biden administration actively oppose the treaty.

The 2nd Meeting of States Parties (2MSP) to the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons (TPNW) will be held in NY from November 27 to December 1, 2023. If we can successfully press our federal administration to send an observer delegation, it would be a huge step forward in U.S. leadership on nuclear disarmament, and send a strong signal to other nuclear-armed states.

On Oct 18 we will contact our local/state elected officials and ask that they sign a letter to President Biden urging him to (1) send an observer delegation to the 2MSP and (2) to initiate negotiations with all nuclear weapons states toward a verifiable, timebound agreement to eliminate all nuclear weapons from the planet.

Jeremy Love, outreach & organizing consultant with Back from the Brink, will join us for a briefing on the campaign and to help with crafting emails to local/state elected officials. Then we will take action together!

Join our quarterly Action events where we get information, support and even have some fun advocating for the change we want in the world. If you are unsure, nervous or discouraged we especially hope you’ll come – we are in this together!
