Dianne Feinstein actually said...

"To help solve this stalemate, Senator Feinstein and I will again include a pilot program for nuclear waste storage in the Energy and Water Appropriations Bill."

"The legislation is consistent with the President's Blue Ribbon Commission on America's Nuclear Future, but my own view is that Yucca Mountain can and should be part of the solution."

"I can think of a whole host of things that could happen that are not predictable."

"I look forward to reintroducing with Senator Feinstein, and Senator Murkowski, and perhaps others, legislation that would create temporary and permanent storage sites for nuclear waste."
