Could the Senator also tell me in relation to even more powerful nuclear weapons, the so-called bunker busters--which name, I think, does not do justice to the gravity of the weapon, the severity of the weapon we are considering--I am told by some these weapons have detonation power up to 70 times the power of the bomb we dropped on Hiroshima. Could the Senator from Michigan tell me, in terms of developing and building these new doomsday weapons, 70 times more powerful than the bomb dropped on Hiroshima, what does this bill do?
