The proverbial 'poison pill' in the nuclear fuel cycle is radioactive waste.
Spent nuclear fuel is the radioactive by-product of electricity generation at commercial nuclear power plants, and high-level radioactive waste is the by-product from reprocessing spent fuel to produce fissile material for US (and other nation's) nuclear weapons.
Multiple issues and serious environmental problems involved with the production of nuclear power and weapons have been a long-standing concern of the environmental and anti-nuclear movement, e.g., https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-nuclear_movement_in_the_United_States
Via Wikipedia:
Anti-nuclear organizations oppose nuclear power, nuclear weapons, and/or uranium mining.
More than eighty anti-nuclear groups operate, or have operated, in the United States. These include:
- Abalone Alliance
- Arms Control Association
- Bailly Alliance
- Beyond Nuclear
- Clamshell Alliance
- Committee for Nuclear Responsibility
- Corporate Accountability International

The Green Party has as a prominent part of its platform opposition to nuclear-related risks, including power generation, weapons production and intractable problems with radioactive disposal and production.
The European Green parties during the Cold War led political opposition to forward-based atomic weapons and as the international Green party movement has grown to Green political parties in approximately 100 countries, so have Green platforms taken positions in opposition to the environmental/human/planetary risks of nuclear weapons and potential destruction and consequences of nuclear use.
