I feel like geothermal is an underused resource. I am a big believer in it.

40 percent of the benefits of the American Jobs Plan are going to be directed to communities that have been left behind.

Funding these demonstration projects is such a pivotal step in getting there.

We want them earning the kinds of wages or better that they earned when they were mining coal.

the American Jobs Plan also supports using the rebate and other incentives like you have described

Key, a key tool in the toolbox to save money, create jobs, reduce our CO2 emissions, win, win, win.

This administration is clearly--I mean, you are in this position, fighting for Hanford, and I am new to this position.

The administration is supportive, certainly, of keeping the existing fleet open.

I would disagree with that, and so would the President.

We need to develop the entire supply chain of a bunch of products, but this product in particular, since you raised it.

I don't know that I used the word 'ban' or that that was the specific question, but I am concerned about the import of panels manufactured in China using slave labor, and I want to create a supply chain and jobs here instead of relying…

This sort of clean energy accelerator, a clean energy bank, if you will, it is a hugely promising strategy.

the importance of maintaining our nuclear fleet is really critical if we are going to achieve our goals of net-zero carbon emissions.

Particularly, countering Russian malign influence and its weaponization of energy resources is essential in helping to create a safer and more stable European energy landscape.

Hydropower is not just a big portion of our existing zero-carbon energy supply, but a great source of zero-carbon power.

The bottom line is we need nuclear, and we need advanced nuclear, as well.

I am a big believer in pump storage and in hydropower to begin with.

We have to focus on efficiency, so that means the buildings sector.

We are not going to be able to achieve our climate goals if our nuclear power plants shut down.

Our goal in the Biden administration is to get to net-zero carbon emissions by 2050. And that`s exactly what we`re going to do, adding new clean energy to the grid, as well as decarbonizing the base fuel that we have.

the Biden administration wants to put 40 percent of the benefits of the investments in this clean energy economy, which you`re going to see in the jobs package next go-round, into communities that have been suffered from environmental…

Part of what Joe Biden's Executive Order was today was to create a whole of government effort with respect to, especially electric vehicles, charging.

We cannot leave our people behind.

I think that we can work together.
