"Innovation has come to the nuclear industry. There are many new companies, nuclear 'startups,' in fact, that are pursuing concepts that advance safety, security, and efficiency."

"Our bill directs NRC to develop 'technology inclusive' regulatory processes in an effort to enable the growth of the new, exciting industry."

"Advanced reactor innovators must have an efficient regulatory process at the Nuclear Regulatory Commission in order to bring these new technologies into operation."
