President Obama: take nuclear weapons off high alert

In just 10 days, Donald Trump will have the power to launch a nuclear attack that could blow up our planet within minutes.

It’s insane that anyone could launch a nuclear war in minutes, and with Trump in power we have every reason to be worried. He thinks more countries should be allowed to obtain nuclear weapons and has said he’ll expand the US’s nuclear arsenal and even take part in a nuclear “arms race”!

There’s a way we can reduce the risk of nuclear disaster. Before leaving office, President Obama can take nuclear missiles off high alert with a single executive order, making sure that Trump could not launch them without careful consideration.

Add your name to this urgent call to President Obama and share widely. We’ll deliver our voices directly to the White House.
