The pro-nuclear movement won a major victory by forcing the Biden Administration to take action to save nuclear

“Maintaining our fleet & preventing closures of nuclear plants is critical to achieving emission reduction goals and ensuring a reliable grid”

Whether or not that particular legislative tactic works, there is growing support in Congress to save nuclear

The only way to save nuclear energy is by telling the truth about the technology, and standing up for nuclear, publicly and passionately.

The closure of Indian Point nuclear plant in NY spiked emissions, revealed that anti-nuclear “climate advocates” like @AOC @nrdc @SierraClub are frauds, and led many progressives to change their minds about nuclear

In September, I will join pro-nuclear activists from across Europe to rally in Belgium to save that nation’s nuclear plants from Energy Minister, @TinneVdS , who is seeking to replace them with nat gas, & whose business partner works for nat gas companies
