Context

Mission statement from the organization that produced this bracelet. "Our mission is to cancel the basing of the F-35A Joint Strike Fighter at the Vermont Air National Guard Station located at the Burlington, Vermont International Airport. We oppose the basing in order to protect the over 6,600 people living around the airport from the dangers associated with its basing. Some of these include adverse health impacts on children and adults, cognitive impairment in children, reduction in property values, classification of thousands of affordable homes as being unsuitable for residential use, disproportional negative impacts to minorities and people with low incomes, risk of loss of life from crashes, and nuclear threats from and to Vermont." From the Associated Press in September of 2019 - "The first two of an eventual 20 F-35 jets arrived Thursday at the Vermont Air National Guard base in South Burlington, the first Guard unit to receive the next-generation fighter.
