 Markey, Antinuclear Activists Look to Revive Movement for Arms Freeze
WASHINGTON - Alarmed by the increased dangers of nuclear warfare in the post-Sept. 11 world, Representative Edward J. Markey and a group of veteran antinuclear activists are seeking to revive an old initiative - the movement for a nuclear freeze - to reinvigorate a worldwide campaign against the use and proliferation of nuclear weapons.
In a news conference yesterday, Markey urged President Bush to renounce proposals that the US adjust its strategic doctrine to allow the first use of nuclear weapons, and said the United States should agree to a permanent end to the testing of nuclear warheads.
Markey has introduced a joint resolution that calls for an end to the development, testing, and production of nuclear weapons, the ratification of the Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty, and greater efforts to stop the proliferation of nuclear technologies to rogue regimes such as North Korea and Iran.

 Irregular Times Rating and Contact Information for Representative Edward Markey of MA   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-30)
Markey has taken the principled step of formally lending support to H.R., which would put an end to the practice of "extraordinary rendition." This is a practice in which Bush Administration officials send people into the custody of certain nations, knowing full well (some would say intending) that they will be tortured there.
Markey has taken the affirmative step of cosponsoring H.R., which would provide more information to the public about contacts between lobbyists and politicians, and which would slow down the revolving door of politics in which politicians move into cushy corporate jobs after they retire in exchange for favors.
Markey has not yet cosponsored H.R., which would acknowledge the injustices of slavery and racial discrimination and establish a commission to study them.

 Markey says student's act exposes air security gaps - The Boston Globe
WASHINGTON -- US Representative Edward J. Markey of Malden said yesterday that a 20-year-old college student's success in putting box cutters aboard two airplanes shows that America's air safety system has major flaws.
Markey, a member of the House Select Committee on Homeland Security, has long argued that the Bush administration has not done enough after the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, to protect Americans as they travel.
Rather than giving Heatwole jail time, Markey has suggested that he be required to work for the transportation agency.

 Tri-Valley Cares
In 1998, Rep. Ed Markey (D-MA) and 14 other members of the U.S. House of Representatives had the courage and foresight to call for a less provocative, less wasteful, and more responsible custodianship program to save billions of dollars and ensure the real safety of the U.S. nuclear weapons stockpile.
The Markey Resolution calls for an end to "Stockpile Stewardship" and for a more responsible custodianship program that is far smaller, less expensive and requires fewer facilities than the current program.
Moreover, the Markey Resolution provides for the maintenance needs of the U.S. arsenal in a manner that is consistent with U.S. obligations under the long-standing nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty and the Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty, which is awaiting ratification by the U.S. Senate.
