The unconventional and energetic spirit that created the commercial nuclear energy industry will again transform our country. New, smaller and more efficient reactors are being developed to combat climate change and meet the energy demand.
Did you know nuclear energy generates nearly 60 percent of this nation’s carbon-free electricity? It’s also essential to the economy. It creates thousands of high-paying jobs in the U.S. and helps fund schools, fire and police protection, roads, parks, zoos and other amenities.
There’s a lot at stake, but the rewards are high. And the time is now to power America’s future.
