*This letter: *
*Press conference outside Santa Fe City Hall at noon on Wednesday Jan. 15
(map <https://goo.gl/maps/ycyfawsEqEYzu3wG9>) -- please come, and please
recruit others *



*Dear New Mexico friends – *
As we have explained in previous letters
<http://www.lasg.org/letters/letters.html>, Wednesday is the day on which
the City will announce the finalists for "Master Developer" of the former
College of Santa Fe site (and possibly surrounding properties as well, a
64- to ~100-acre project). The National Nuclear Security Administration
(NNSA) has applied for this role. NNSA and/or Los Alamos National
Laboratory (LANL) are present in some (not all) other proposals, as
tenant(s).

The situation is opaque, fluid, and developing. So far, Mayor Webber has
disdainfully rebuffed our requests to meet or discuss the momentous social,
cultural, and economic development impacts of placing a nuclear weapons
campus in Santa Fe. (Don't be deceived -- that is exactly what LANL is and
what this would be.)

People power may be the only force stronger than LANL's money and
corruption. We really need you to help us expand our numbers.

If you live *anywhere* nearby please come to this joint press conference,
and please ask as many friends to come as possible. Sheer attendance
matters. A strong showing Wednesday will save countless hours of work
later, and will give wings to efforts to push back on LANL's entirely
unjustified expansion. There are many powerful people in Washington who
know LANL specializes in taxpayer ripoffs. Some of them need to see some
spine from us out here to take to their bosses.

New Mexico is being selected to be a nuclear weapons support and sacrifice
area. That now includes the Santa Fe metro area.

We may not know know the outcome of this first Midtown Campus decision by
noon Wednesday but regardless of that we must seize the day.

While it seems absurd that NNSA could be a possible "master developer," we
can't be sure that Mayor Webber and the people around him wouldn't want
that -- or want, say, a training facility for plutonium workers. We just
don't know.

This event will also give us a chance for us to network with each other and
with representatives of any other groups present, as well as speak to any
City officials willing to do so.

*Getting people to come on Wednesday is the sole action item we are
recommending right now. It is very, very important!  *

Thank you!

Greg, Trish, Lydia, Ernie, Michelle, and the rest of the Study Group
