URGENT! Help save our children!

[Ellen Thomas]

I am writing to you today not as an anti-nuclear activist, but as a mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother who is deeply concerned about the health of all of us—especially our children and the generations yet to come. Women, the unborn, newborns, and children are the most vulnerable to the harmful effects of man-made radiation. Our radiation protection standards should reflect that reality. They should be strengthened, not weakened.  If a standard doesn't protect a child, it doesn't protect us.

The information I am sharing about NRC Proposed Rule NRC-2025-1140 is not about being pro- or anti-nuclear. It is about one fundamental responsibility we all share: protecting human health—today, tomorrow, and for generations yet to be born. Radiation exposure is a public health issue, not a political one. Regardless of where you stand on nuclear power, we all have a shared responsibility to ensure that our nation's radiation protection standards remain based on the best available science and continue to protect current and future generations from avoidable harm.

The window to influence nuclear policy is narrow, and the time is now.

The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is currently undergoing a massive overhaul of its regulations. This is our chance to tell them that we refuse to be exposed to more radioactive pollution. They are required by law to accept public comments on these proposed rules, and every single submission is entered into the official record.

How to make your voice heard:

1. Go to: ProtectBetter.org/nrc-comments

2. Select: “Submit” on federalregister.gov

3. Click: "SUBMIT A PUBLIC COMMENT" and submit your message.

What to say: Use your own voice and experience. Clearly state that you oppose any lowering of radiation safety standards. Remind them that the health of the public and the environment must come before industrial expansion.
