“Hi, my name is Name and I’m calling as a Virginia resident to urge the governor to not go forward with regulations on uranium mining in Virginia. State and local government studies have found that mining would be a significant threat to drinking water, public health, and local economies, leaving behind huge volumes of radioactive and toxic waste that has been linked to severe health problems. The General Assembly recently rejected a bill to allow mining in the state to due overwhelming citizen support for the ban. Please respect the will of the people and the legislature and keep the ban on uranium mining in Virginia!"
