    Low-yield nuclear weapons have the potential to lower the threshold for using nuclear weapons & increase the risk of entering the U.S. into nuclear war. That's why we've introduced the Hold the LYNE Act to permanently ban the development of these weapons.

    We already have a nuclear deterrent that is more than adequate to achieve our national security goals. Funding new, low-yield weapons would only draw us further into an unnecessary nuclear arms race and increase the risks of miscalculation.
