Maryland needs to make its voice heard with other states warning against nuclear war February 14, 2025

Gwen DuBois, MD MPH, Chesapeake PSR President & PsR National Board Member | Maryland Matters

Nuclear war does not have to be our fate and people in Maryland are joining others across the U.S. to demand change. Sen. Clarence Lam (D-Howard and Anne Arundel), Del. Nicole Williams (D-Prince George’s) and many cosponsors, responding to input from the public, have introduced the joint resolutions on the use of nuclear weapons. They are similar to ones passed in Montgomery and Prince Georges counties and the cities of Baltimore and Frederick, all modeled on the five points of the Back from the Brink campaign. They convey the wishes of many Marylanders that our government initiate multilateral talks for a verifiable agreement for nuclear disarmament among the nuclear-armed states.
