WINDOW ROCK – "Since September, when she traveled to Washington, D.C., to tell House Speaker Mike Johnson to renew the Radiation Exposure Compensation Act (#RECA), Maggie Billiman has had her gallbladder removed.
"Now she is awaiting more possibly devastating news about her liver. And if that wasn’t enough bad news, she said she was also told she has three cysts on her pancreas.
"'I just had surgery and I’m still in a lot of pain,' she said on Dec. 26, referring to her gallbladder removal surgery.
"A #downwinder victim, Billiman, and about 30 others from the #NavajoNation, #Laguna, and #AcomaPueblo tribes traveled to Washington, D.C., in September to advocate for the passage of Missouri Republican Sen. Josh Hawley’s RECA legislation.
"For 17 years, from 1945 and 1962, the U.S. conducted nearly 200 atmospheric nuclear weapons development tests. Atmospheric nuclear tests are when nuclear bombs are exploded in the air, instead of underground or underwater.
"At the heart of the bombs involved #UraniumMining and [#UraniumProcessing], which was performed by tens of thousands of workers, like Maggie’s father.
"Maggie’s father, a member of the legendary Navajo Code Talkers Howard Billiman Sr., worked in the #UraniumMines.
"'My dad had died of stomach cancer, he was one of the #NavajoCodeTalkers, and he passed away,' she said.
"Her father worked at the #KennecottMine in Utah. He also worked at the #KingmanMine in Arizona in the 1950s through the 1960s, Maggie said.
"After the tests ended in 1962, many of the uranium miners and process workers initiated class action lawsuits claiming exposure to known radiation hazards."

MONTREAL -- "The Western Mining Action Network is meeting today in Montreal, with speakers from the network's #IndigenousCaucus speaking on the #NuclearFuelChain, defending the water and land, and the rights stated in the United Nations Declaration on Indigenous Peoples [#UNDIP].
The Deadly Nuclear Fuel Chain
"#PetuucheGilbert, #AcomaPueblo, said there should be more concern over the #NuclearFuel chain, #radiation and #UraniumMining. The nuclear fuel chain includes the making of the #AtomicBomb, and the #NuclearWaste from #SpentFuelRods in #NuclearPowerPlants.
"In his homeland, in the Grants mining district in #NewMexico, the abandoned #UraniumMines are #radioactive hazards affecting the water, air and the animals on the ground.
"Nearby on the #NavajoNation, there are more than 500 abandoned uranium mines and there are massive #UraniumMill waste sites, where the ore was processed. These all emit #RadonGas. He pointed out that the #McArthurRiver, #KeyLakeUranium Mine and mill in northern #Saskatchewan, Canada is the world's largest uranium mine and mill.
"Petuuche said he believes that the cancers now that the people in his area are suffering from are a result of radioactivity. There was also the atomic bomb testing in Nevada. All of that radioactivity spread over the entire United States. #Downwinders breathing the radioactivity in the air are also radiation victims."
