Peace Action is a peace organization formed through the merger of The Committee for a SANE Nuclear Policy (SANE) and the Nuclear Weapons Freeze Campaign (also known as "The Freeze"). It has mobilized for peace and nuclear disarmament since 1957. As of 2004, Peace Action is focusing on preventing the deployment of nuclear weapons in space, weapons sales to countries abusing human rights, and promoting a new U.S. foreign policy based on common security and peaceful resolution to international conflicts.

Peace Action believes that every person has the right to live without the threat of nuclear weapons, that war is not a suitable response to conflict, and that the United States has the resources to both protect and provide for its citizens. http://www.peace-action.org/abt/abtpa.html
