Rep. Adam Smith (d-WA-9) and Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) have introduced a bill to Establish the Policy of No First Use of Nuclear Weapons. In the House the bill is H>R. 921 and in the Senate it is S.272. No Colorado Representative or Senator has co-sponsored as yet. The text of this bill reads in toto, “It is the policy of the United States to not use nuclear weapons first.” If you poll the general public many believe that is the U.S. policy, but it is not so. This bill seeks to remedy that situation and establish that the U.S. will not be the first to launch a nuclear weapon.
