🧵/1

Let's take a look at how many reactors are REALLY eligible for @ENERGY's Civil Nuclear Credit program.

The article claims dozens of reactors could qualify for the bailout, and include a list of reactors located in what are called organized markets but that is NOT the same as the baseline criterion in DOE’s guidance or the legislation.
/3

The DOE guidance and legislation require reactors to be merchant reactors that generate a majority of their revenue by selling power and services on competitive wholesale markets or through competitively-awarded bilateral contracts.

#FactCheckFriday comes a day early this week! With Knute Buehler's campaign out with another ad that crams five blatantly false or misleading statements into a 30-second video, we couldn't wait another day to fact check. Here’s our breakdown of the ad: (thread) #orpol
JEN KEESEY: "As a lifelong Democrat, I care about the right to choose, and I know Knute Buehler does too."
