I have never seen a credible solution to meeting our long-term goals without major demand-side contribution.

I just think that having it in the public hands to respond to a disruption that affects our entire economy is the place that we should be.

The agreement codifies with the P5+1 that Iran will never get a nuclear weapon.

We would like to start laying the groundwork for what will be a set of consent-based facilities for managing nuclear waste.

It is a good deal for the world--a good deal for America--and it richly deserves your support.

The fact is, there is not a challenge in the entire region that would not become much worse if Iran had a nuclear weapon--and that is exactly why this deal is so important.

The only viable option is a comprehensive diplomatic resolution of the type reached in Vienna.

I would imagine there would be, first of all, an extraordinarily strong, and I would imagine, cohesive international pressure, perhaps sanctions, and perhaps a military response.

If they try that, we will find it.

We have always said that the energy insecurities of our allies is a national security issue for the United States.

I think quite clearly, we need to solve the back end to have any form of nuclear power going forward.

The overwhelming preponderance--I mean nearly unanimous in the scientific community of relevance certainly expects that we are on a pathway to very negative consequences.
