Embracing the goals and provisions of the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons.

House Resolution 77 calls on the federal government to adopt the goals of the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons and prioritize nuclear disarmament as a core element of U.S. national security policy. The resolution outlines several specific policy recommendations, including renouncing the option of using nuclear weapons first, ending the President’s sole authority to launch a nuclear attack, and canceling plans to modernize the U.S. nuclear arsenal. While this resolution is a non-binding expression of the House of Representatives' position and would not change current law, it seeks to shift national strategy toward leading global diplomatic efforts to eliminate nuclear weapons.
