Expressing the sense of Congress regarding the nuclear weapons stockpile.

Summary

Expresses the sense of the Congress that: (1) the U.S. nuclear weapons stockpile can be maintained with a program that is far smaller, less expensive, and does not require facilities or experiments that are likely to be used for warhead design or development; and (2) the Secretary of Energy should direct the Department of Energy (DOE) program for custodianship of the nuclear weapons arsenal toward less costly, less provocative methods and cease the current DOE stockpile stewardship plans.
