Gov. Bill Richardson is in Washington, D.C. today to propose stopping new U.S. nuclear weapons development as part of a plan to halt nuclear programs in North Korea, Iran and elsewhere.
Richardson will make the comments at the Center for Strategic and International Studies as part of a speech on “his vision for a renewed and strong American foreign policy,” according to the Albuquerque Journal.
Richardson will also head to New Hampshire late next week to campaign in the early primary state.
On Feb. 16, beginning at 5:30 p.m., state Sen. Kathy Sgambati will host a house party for Richardson in the town of Tilton, located north of Concord. On Feb. 17, Richardson is scheduled at noon to be the featured speaker at the Concord City Democrats’ “3rd Annual DemSocial” at the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers’ union hall.
Richardson was in New York on Wednesday to meet with the new U.N. secretary-general.
