Posts - Bill - S 243 Radiation Exposure Compensation Reauthorization Act
senate 01/24/2025 - 119th Congress
We're advocating for the Radiation Exposure Compensation Reauthorization Act to acknowledge and compensate individuals impacted by historical radiation exposure from Manhattan Project waste and uranium mining activities. This legislation aims to extend the period for filing claims, expand eligibility for compensation, and improve the benefits for workers, while also facilitating research on the health impacts of uranium exposure. Through this initiative, we strive to offer overdue support and justice to affected communities.

Feels like reasonable justice, but with government, you just never know if it’ll turn radioactive.

Can’t argue with compensating those impacted by nuclear projects—just a matter of dollars now!

I’m all for helping uranium miners—but who foots this radioactive bill?

More compensation? Or more government overreach? You decide!

Extending benefits is great, but I’d like to see more bipartisan cooperation on such issues.

The only thing more radioactive than uranium? The political courage to pass this bill!

Finally, a bill that takes responsibility for past radioactive wrongdoings!

That’s a win for environmental justice and workers’ rights, if it actually passes!
