The last remaining nuclear arms control treaty between the United States and Russia – the New START agreement – expires on February 5, 2026. The world cannot afford inaction when it comes to preventing nuclear war.
On Wednesday, December 17 – to mark 50 days from New START’s expiration date – FCNL and our coalition partners are mobilizing peace advocates for a call-in day to urge congressmembers to push for negotiations to replace the New START agreement and stop a new nuclear arms race.

Offices tell us that when they receive a sustained number of phone calls in a short time, it helps to raise issues on legislators’ priority lists.
It’s crucial that Congress urge the administration to negotiate a replacement to the New START agreement. Without one, we will enter a time of greater instability and a higher risk of nuclear war – not to mention the billions of dollars on a new arms race.
