Senator Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) has called on the Academy of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences to use the platform of the Oscars to recognize victims of nuclear testing. This plea comes in the wake of the film 'Oppenheimer', directed by Christopher Nolan, receiving significant attention and accolades during this award season. Hawley's request aims to highlight the plight of Americans seeking compensation for radiation exposure due to nuclear testing, a topic that he feels warrants attention amidst the film's celebration.
