This is a straightforward, commonsense bill. In the world we live in today, where we have more and more electrical energy demand, it makes no sense to be closing down any kind of electrical generation, especially one where the infrastructure is already built, working, and producing reliable and affordable baseload power. Mr. Speaker, I urge my colleagues to support Representative Valadao's legislation, and I yield back the balance of my time.
