We Found the Weapons of Mass Destruction We Found the Weapons of Mass Destruction. They’re in Our Backyard. The core component of a nuclear weapon is called the “pit.” A pit is a sphere of plutonium surrounded by conventional explosives. When the explosives are detonated, the plutonium is compressed, which creates a nuclear explosion. This is the type of bomb that was dropped over Nagasaki, Japan on August 9, 1945. Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL), located 25 miles northwest of Santa Fe, was home to the Manhattan Project, where the first plutonium pits were made. 107 Cienega There has been continuous pit production at LANL since the 1940s. So if you’re Santa Fe, NM 87501 looking for Weapons of Mass Destruction, they’re in our backyard. The (505) 986-1973 Tel Department of Energy/National Nuclear Security Administration (DOE/NNSA) (505) 986-0997 Fax has indicated that production will continue there indefinitely. For example, www.nuclearactive.org [email protected] • Pit production was done at LANL when the DOE facility at Rocky Flats, Colorado was shut down several times due to fires. Although pit production at LANL has been primarily research-based since then, in April 2003, LANL produced the nation’s first stockpile certified pit since the closure of Rocky Flats. This means that LANL produced the first pit capable of powering a nuclear weapon since 1989. • Through equipment installation in existing facilities, the pit production facility at Technical Area 55 (TA-55) is expected to have the capacity to produce 20 pits per year by 2007. • In 1996, the final decision for the Programmatic Environmental Impact Statement for the Stockpile Stewardship and Management Program stated that pit production at LANL's TA-55 would be expanded to 50 to 80 pits per year. • In 1999, the final decision for the Sitewide Environmental Impact Statement (SWEIS) for LANL agreed that there should be a 50 to 80 pit per year capacity at LANL, but that the 20 pit per year level provides adequate capacity to meet near-term production requirements. The SWEIS therefore caps pit production levels at 20 pits per year. • In 2003, DOE/NNSA proposed a Modern Pit Facility (MPF), to be located at one of five DOE sites around the nation, including LANL and the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant in New Mexico. DOE/NNSA argued that the increasing age of the nation’s nuclear stockpile may adversely affect the safety or reliability of the plutonium pit. Furthermore, DOE/NNSA argued that the U.S. must be prepared to produce pits to support weapons of new designs, such as the low-yield “mini-nukes,” which would violate the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) of 1970. Through the NPT, the U.S. agreed to pursue unequivocal nuclear disarmament. Essentially, the MPF would have been able to produce up to 500 new nuclear weapons per year. • The No Action Alternative in the draft Environmental Impact Statement for the MPF supports the Stockpile Stewardship decision of 50 to 80 pits per year despite the 20 pits per year cap that was placed on production in 1999. • In 2004, due to public pressure on state and Congressional decisionmakers by thousands of citizens nationwide, DOE/NNSA delayed the MPF indefinitely. Now that the MPF has been delayed, DOE may try to amend the LANL SWEIS to reflect the Stockpile Stewardship Program decision and the intentions of the MPF and expand production at LANL to 50 to 80 pits per year. Due to U.S. treaty obligations under the NPT and unresolved questions about pit aging, it is CCNS's belief that there is no need for pit production anywhere or at any capacity. New Mexicans must continue to work to ensure that pit production is not expanded at LANL. Contact New Mexico’s Congressional delegation and local decisionmakers and tell them that we are pleased that the MPF has been delayed indefinitely and that New Mexicans are opposed to expanded pit production at LANL.

  • Bingaman Safe, Johnson Dems' Only Threat in Open Seat Race
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE February 8, 2011 INTERVIEWS: DEAN DEBNAM 888-621-6988 / 919-880-4888 (serious media inquiries only please, other questions can be directed to Tom Jensen) QUESTIONS ABOUT THE POLL: TOM JENSEN 919-744-6312 Bingaman safe, Johnson Dems’ only threat in open seat race Raleigh, N.C. – New Mexico Senator Jeff Bingaman generally cruises to re-election, and if he chooses to go for a sixth term, he would start off as a heavy favorite. But there has been some speculation he will instead retire. In his stead, Democrats should still be in strong shape to hold his seat unless popular former Governor Gary Johnson declines a run for president to make a bid for Congress’ upper chamber instead. With a 56-27 approval-disapproval margin, Bingaman is more popular at home than all but four of the 77 colleagues which PPP has measured in the last year or so. This strong favor with his voters gives Bingaman formidable odds to walk to re-election, even against Johson, whose 44-32 favorability rating makes him considerably the best liked of the non-Bingaman candidates, and who is almost equally popular with Democrats, Republicans, and independents. Johnson comes closest to beating the incumbent, yet still trails, 51-40. By comparison, Rep. Steve Pearce lags Bingaman, 57-34, and Rep. Heather Wilson trails, 56-37. The Republicans all do what would make them far more competitive in almost any other state: they at least match the incumbent in party unity and take more of his voters from him than he does of theirs.

Skirting campaign finance laws. Adultery and sexual harassment. CREW has spent the past five years shining a spotlight on the extensive violations of the public trust committed by members of Congress. After publishing five “Most Corrupt Members of Congress” reports, it’s clear that the system for holding accountable those members of Congress who sacrifice the public interest for special interests is not working. Whether members take bribes, violate gift rules, or flout campaign finance regulations, those charged with enforcement look the other way. Over the past five years, CREW has uncovered more than 425 instances of potential violations of ethics rules by no fewer than 56 members of Congress. Of those, 37 members have never been investigated by any of the congressional ethics bodies, and 26 “Most Corrupt” members continue to serve in Congress. Because of that, this year, CREW is naming the House Committee on Standards of Official Conduct and the Senate Select Committee on Ethics to its “Most Corrupt” list, for standing by and allowing members of Congress to break the rules with impunity.

  • Dancing Toward the Middle New Mexico's Budgetary and Political
    Dancing Toward the Middle New Mexico’s Budgetary and Political Deliberations, FY2013–2014 Kim Seckler New Mexico State University Introduction On January 12, 2013, New Mexico completed its year-long centennial celebration. As it be- gan its one hundred and first year as a state, New Mexico could lay claim to a slowly recovering economy, a healthy oil and gas industry, a fresh set of congressional representatives and senators, and a predictable set of ongoing legislative disputes. As the centennial birthday party celebra- tions came to a close, legislators and the governor suited up for their annual boxing match, the convening of the annual legislative session. Sixty days and $5.9 billion later, the legislature en- acted a surprising amount of substantive legislation, came close to passing more, and laid the groundwork to avoid a budget veto. The Landscape The Demographic Landscape New Mexico is the country’s fifth largest state by land area, though its resident population of just over two million people makes it 36th in population. The state continues to reflect its historic origins with a Hispanic population of almost 47% and a Native-American population of over 10%. More than a third of New Mexicans speak a language other than English at home, though the state is home to fewer foreign-born citizens than the national average (The US Census reports 9.8% of New Mexicans are foreign-born compared to the US average of 12%) (Census Bureau, 2013). A large state with a small population, much of New Mexico is rural with population centers clustered in three distinct areas, the Albuquerque metro area, the Santa Fe County area, and in the south, the Dona Ana County/Las Cruces area.
