At the November 18, 2020 forum we learned about the national security outlook for the Biden administration and how hundreds of billions of dollars in excessive nuclear weapons spending could be better spent on higher national priorities such as responses to coronavirus, racial injustice and climate change.
Watch Senator Elizabeth Warren address participants in the Ploughshares Fund nuclear policy forum, Transforming National Security: Nuclear Policy For A New Era, above.
Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) has served in the US Senate since 2013. She has long proposed three core nuclear policy principles: no new nuclear weapons; more international arms control, not less; and No First Use. She is a fearless consumer advocate who has made her life's work the fight for middle class families, and is one of the nation’s leading progressive voices, fighting for big structural change that would transform our economy and rebuild the middle class.
