Change the US UN vote on depleted uranium weapons

The use of uranium weapons generates toxic remnants of war with an inherent risk of indiscriminate harm. They interfere with post- conflict reconstruction, spread fear and are difficult and expensive to remove.The properties of DU weapons ensure that it is impossible to completely decontaminate sites where they are fired.
The European Parliament has issued four resolutions calling for a moratorium on the use of DU weapons, the most recent and far-reaching calling for a global ban. The United Nations General Assembly passed its third resolution on DU in December 2010 urging release of information from users in order to facilitate assessment of areas where DU has been used. Only four countries voted against the 2010 Resolution, including the United States. We strongly urge you to reconsider.
