Concerned about New Nuclear in NY? Attend the People’s Meeting in Syracuse Sept 30, 11 a.m.

I’m writing with regards to the Governor’s upcoming secret and exclusionary meeting with top nuclear industry officials in Syracuse at the Marriott Downtown.

On September 30th, outside of the meeting, we’ll be hosting a “Peoples’ meeting” on nuclear energy. We would love to invite your members, networks, and communities to come and participate in the event.

For more information on the event, you can find our ActionNetwork here: https://actionnetwork.org/events/peoples-meeting-nuclear-energy-is-not-green-or-clean-2/

The meeting is being hosted by Neighbors of the Onondaga Nation, Allies of the Tonawanda Seneca Nation, Food & Water Watch, Alliance for a Green Economy, Nuclear Information and Resource Service, Citizen Action of New York, Frack Action, Syracuse Peace Council, NY Renews. We will be inviting speakers from the Onondaga Nation to discuss how the reactors, on unceded Onondaga Nation territory, and the resulting waste, impacts their lives. The meeting is also an opportunity to hear from anyone who wishes to speak about this critical issue endangering our futures and the futures of the many generations yet to come.

Everyone who wants to will also have the opportunity to speak, though we are going to have speakers from the Onondaga Nation and other Indigenous communities and sponsoring groups go first. UNLIKE Hochul’s Secret Nuclear Summit, this People’s Meeting is for everyone and everyone’s voices will be heard.
