In late September more than 50 members of the Navajo Nation, Laguna Pueblo, Acoma Pueblo and Hopi tribe are traveling from New Mexico to Washington, D.C., to demand House Speaker Mike Johnson allow a vote on legislation reauthorizing the Radiation Exposure Compensation Act (RECA). You can help:
- Call House Majority Leader Mike Johnson’s office and ask that S. 3853 be brought to vote on the House floor immediately. call 202-225-2777, and urge him to extend and expand the Radiation Exposure Compensation Act.
- Contact Your Representative: Call, email, or visit your representative’s office to ask them to contact Speaker Johnson to bring RECA to a vote and to vote FOR RECA. Remind them of the importance of RECA and urge them to support its extension, expansion, and reauthorization.
- Amplify on Social Media: Use the hashtag #SaveRECA and tag your representatives. Let them know that their constituents are watching and waiting for action.
- Share Your Story: If you or someone you know has been impacted by radiation exposure, share your story. Personal testimonies can be powerful tools to sway public opinion and influence lawmakers.
