Protect New Mexico: Sign the Petition to Governor Lujan Grisham

New Mexicans are speaking up. The Department of Energy (DOE) is expanding its mission at the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant (WIPP), putting our communities at greater risk with increased shipments of more dangerous radioactive waste—over longer distances, and for many more years to come.

We urge Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham to use every legal tool available—agreements, permits, and state authority—to enforce strict limits on WIPP. The DOE must keep its promises to New Mexico.

Join us in calling on the Governor to:

  • Enforce legal limits on WIPP’s mission

  • Stop the shipment of new, more hazardous waste into our state

  • Prioritize clean-up of Legacy Waste from Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL)

  • Demand the siting of a new repository in another state

Sign the petition and help protect the health, safety, and future of New Mexico.

PETICIÓN AL GOBERNADOR DE NUEVO MÉXICO

The Waste Isolation Pilot Plant (WIPP) is a nuclear waste repository in New Mexico, but its expansion poses serious risks to our environment and communities. The plant, originally designed with a promise of a closure date of 2024, is now seeking to extend its operations for at least 60 years - or forever!
