Peace Action Celebrates Fifty Years of
Action for PeaceThis year, Peace Action, the merger of SANE and The Nuclear Freeze, is celebrating fifty years of effectively mobilizing for peace, disarmament and social justice. Founded in 1957 as the Committee for a SANE Nuclear Policy, we have grown to become the nation's largest grassroots peace organization, with nearly 100 local chapters and more than 100,000 members nationwide.
Over the last five decades, we have worked hard to get results: from the 1963 treaty to ban above ground nuclear testing, to the 1996 signing of the Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty; from ending the war in Vietnam, to blocking weapons sales to human rights abusing countries; and from stopping recent funding requests for new nuclear weapons to mobilizing Peace Voters to elect change, Peace Action and our members and friends have been, and continue to be, at the forefront of the international peace and justice movement.
