Regarding: Joint Flight Campaign PEA
 
Our organization opposes the proposed action which entails up to six Hypersonic flight test launches at up to four different launch locations per year, over the next 10 years. Test objectives are expected to dictate range selection from Atlantic and Pacific test ranges.
 
We believe the following:

  •     Testing of Hypersonics will dramatically escalate the nuclear arms race/new Cold War
  •     Our nation can’t afford another arms race – especially one in space
  •     We need to be spending our national treasury on dealing with our real enemy – climate crisis    and growing economic inequality
  •     Toxic rocket fuel exacerbates an already grave climate crisis
  •     It’s time the warmongers listened to the taxpayers


We support the No Action alternative.
 
In peace,
