US federal fund approves $909 million for nuclear radiation victims
Original: Federal fund has approved $909 million for nuclear radiation victims
A federal compensation fund has approved $909 million in payments for victims of nuclear radiation exposure. The payouts go to people sickened by nuclear testing or work in the nuclear weapons industry, a long-running program that compensates downwinders, uranium miners and others harmed by Cold War-era activities.
Why now: The large sum newly approved for radiation victims draws attention to ongoing government compensation for nuclear testing and industry harms.
