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.

We are at a crucial point.
We have the ability to stop the WIPP expansion if we act now, before significant decisions are made in the next few weeks.
