I agree, certainly, with Senator Feinstein that we must find a sustainable path forward for the storage and disposal of nuclear waste.
For the past two decades, nuclear power has reliably and economically contributed nearly 20 percent of electricity generated in the United States.
It produces more than 60 percent of our non-greenhouse-gas emitting power, making nuclear energy our Nation's single largest contributor of carbon-free electricity.
I think we've made a major error in dialing back on scientist to scientist collaboration with our adversaries.
