NASA's engineering teams and scientific teams are doing great work.

It is my understanding this process has taken over 3 years, and to date, many have not been paid.

We're tired of the partisanship and the shouting and the pettiness. They know we can't afford it.

This one plant, for example, will cut carbon pollution by 16 million tons each year when compared to a similar coal plant.

Nuclear energy remains our largest source of fuel that produces no carbon emissions.

Even when we have differences, we cannot allow those differences to prevent us from making progress.

To meet our growing energy needs and prevent the worst consequences of climate change, we'll need to increase our supply of nuclear power.

To meet our growing energy needs and prevent the worst consequences of climate change, we need to increase our supply of nuclear power and today’s announcement helps to move us down that path.

We will fall behind.

That's the bright future that lies ahead.

The choices we make will affect not just the next generation, but generations to come.

That's the bright future that lies ahead for America.

Investing in nuclear energy remains a necessary step.

Our nation will be well-served by these fine public servants, who both bring a depth of experience and tremendous dedication to their fields.

To create more of these clean energy jobs, we need more production, more efficiency, more incentives. And that means building a new generation of safe, clean nuclear power plants in this country.

I will travel to Savannah, Georgia on Tuesday, March 2, 2010 for the next stop on the White House to Main Street Tour.

I will spend the day in the Savannah area speaking to Georgians about the challenges they face and listening to their ideas for working together to turn the economy around.
