Welcome to
No More Bombs
Welcome to No More Bombs, a movement dedicated to advocating for the elimination or reduction of nuclear bombs. Our mission is to initiate, support, and endorse legislative action, as well as to inform fellow citizens about nuclear weapons and delivery systems, and encourage participation. We aim to share information, announce events, and keep the audience engaged and informed through our website. Join us in our mission to create a world free from the threat of nuclear bombs.
Skagit County has been a Nuclear Weapon Free Zone since 1985.​

The film "A House of Dynamite" premieres today (Oct 10). This is a dramatization of a nuclear strike launched on the United States, and while fictitious, features true information.
Yes, nuclear weapons can reach the United States in less than 30 minutes.
Yes, the United States (and every country) has no viable defense against a nuclear strike once launched.
Yes, a nuclear war would quite literally destroy everything.
With over twelve thousand nuclear weapons around the world, all larger than the bombs that destroyed Hiroshima and Nagasaki, this threat is very real.
We cannot let our communication and arms control systems fall apart. The NewStart Treaty, which expires on February 6th, 2026, limits the number of actively deployed nuclear weapons between the US and Russia to 1500, instead of the full 5000 warhead arsenals.

Arms Control Association Responds to Trump's Reckless Nuclear Testing Remarks
H. RES. 317 - URGING THE UNITED STATES TO LEAD THE WORLD BACK FROM THE BRINK OF NUCLEAR WAR AND HALT AND REVERSE THE NUCLEAR ARMS RACE
With 28 co-sponsors – ask Rick Larsen to sign on
S. RES. 323 - A RESOLUTION URGING THE UNITED STATES TO LEAD A GLOBAL EFFORT TO HALT AND REVERSE THE NUCLEAR ARMS RACE is a companion bill introduced July 16 – Ask Senators Murray and Cantwell to sign on
Rep. Jim McGovern (MA) introduced H. Res. 317 with the idea that a nuclear free world is a national security imperative and the U.S. should lead the effort to reverse the nuclear arms race and plan an economic transition for the civilian and military workforce. It changes outdated policies.
Pramila Jayapal is the sole co-sponsor from Washington State. Ask Rick Larsen to sign on.
Use this Back from the Brink action alert, or write to Representative Larsen online, call him at (202) 225-2605, or send a letter to Rep. Larsen at 2163 Rayburn HOB, Washington, DC 20515.
Use this Back from the Brink action alert to urge Senators Murray and Cantwell to sign on.
No More Bombs signed on to a letter delivered to all members of the U.S. House of Representatives in Support of H. Res. 317 on July 15, the day before the 80th anniversary of the Trinity test that launched the atomic age. This action was also organized by Back from the Brink. Read the letter here.
Both resolutions implore the U.S. to:
-
pursue nuclear disarmament as a national security imperative;
-
renounce the first use of nuclear weapons;
-
end sole presidential launch authority;
-
cancel plans for new, enhanced nuclear weapons and delivery systems;
-
maintain the moratorium on explosive nuclear testing; and
-
support and advance a just economic transition for impacted communities
H. RES. 100 & S. Res. 61 - EXPRESSING SUPPORT FOR THE CONTINUED VALUE OF ARMS CONTROL AGREEMENTS AND NEGOTIATED CONSTRAINTS ON RUSSIAN AND CHINESE STRATEGIC NUCLEAR FORCES.
​
The New START Treaty expires in February 2026. In the face of Russia’s aggressive nuclear stances and China’s nuclear build-up, this resolution underscores the historical commitment to arms control and the need for reducing global nuclear threats. It calls for renewed engagement with Russia and China.

“Ours is a world of nuclear giants and ethical infants. We know more about war than we know about peace, more about killing than we know about living. We have grasped the mystery of the atom and rejected the Sermon on the Mount.”
― Omar N. Bradley
General of the Army, Senior field commander during WW II
Bannering continues in downtown Mount Vernon
​
Most people don't think about nuclear weapons but they need to realize that we are living with the threat and hopefully, do something about it. We will continue to protest nuclear weapons by Bannering the 1st and 3rd Fridays of the month, 3pm, at the downtown Mount Vernon Food Co-Op intersection with Tri-Dee Arts. We'll have our "NO NUKES" banner plus various flags. You may want to write to nomorebombs.skagit@gmail.com to confirm if a holiday or other event may interfere.
Parking is available North of the Co-op. Bring your own sign, use ours, or simply wave at the motorists!
