Peter Stockton and Ingrid Drake of Project On Government Oversight (POGO) [2]President Peter Stockton [3] write that as Washington prepares to host more than 40 heads of state next month for a nuclear security summit, "the U.S., which has the world’s second-largest stock of highly enriched uranium (HEU) and plutonium, needs to unveil a much bolder strategy for securing its own bomb-grade material to inspire other nations to follow suit." In an op-ed in The Hill [4], Stockton and Drake discuss the potential for a nuclear terrorist attack in the U.S. Ploughshares Fund supports POGO’s work on nuclear security issues.
