Congressman Dan Crenshaw writes about the importance of nuclear energy on The Hill.
- Nuclear energy is essential to lowering our emissions while providing reliable energy.
- Nuclear, which is safe, reliable, and our largest source of carbon-free power, faces over-bearing regulations that prevent it from growing in the United States.
- Conservatives in Congress are promoting ways to grow nuclear energy through the Nuclear Energy Leadership Act and other legislation.
“For all the hysterical talk from the Green New Dealers of a renewable-only future, the simple truth remains: renewables will never be reliable enough to power the modern world. If we want to tackle climate change, reduce emissions, and power the grid, then we need the proper mix of energy. We need to make sure that nuclear not only stays on the grid, but grows on it.”
