ANA DC DAYS: June 8-11, then Spring Meeting

Alliance for Nuclear Accountability has held DC Days annually for nearly four decades. All-day training will be Sunday, June 8. Meetings with congressional and executive branch offices will be from Monday to Wednesday, June 9 to 11.

Monday evening will feature a screening of the film “To Use a Mountain,” about sites targeted in the U.S. for highly radioactive waste dumps, including Yucca Mountain, Nevada; it will be followed by a panel discussion with Western Shoshone and Southern Paiutes, for whom Yucca is sacred.

Tuesday evening will be the awards reception, including Beyond Nuclear’s annual Dr. Judith H. Johnsrud “Unsung Hero” Award.

Wednesday evening will be a pizza party, followed by ANA’s hybrid Spring Meeting on Thursday to Friday, June 12 to 13.

There is still time to register for ANA DC Days!

Since 1987, the Alliance for Nuclear Accountability has worked to hold the federal government accountable through citizen education, empowerment, and action. Formed by organizations from communities in the shadows of nuclear weapons facilities, ANA includes more than thirty local, regional, and national organizations concerned about the consequences of US nuclear weapons and waste policies. ANA’s leaders are deeply rooted in communities directly affected by these policies, and we bring our experience to bear in addressing issues of government spending; public accountability; nuclear nonproliferation; waste cleanup, treatment and disposition; and the health and safety of workers, the public and the environment.

Beyond Nuclear joined ANA as a member organization at our founding in 2007. Beyond Nuclear’s radioactive waste specialist, Kevin Kamps, served on the ANA board of directors from 2020 to 2024, including as president from 2023 to 2024.
