I look forward to supporting Dr. Jennifer Clyburn Reed to lead the Southeast Crescent Regional Commission.

Higher energy prices are driving inflation, and make no mistake, this is a hidden tax on our working families.

These policies will raise energy costs and undermine baseload electric generation, threatening families and businesses with more frequent and wholly preventable blackouts.

It seems this reckless tax and spending spree would increase energy costs on all American families and businesses.

As you all know, Congress created the DOE's Advanced Reactor Demonstration program to establish public-private partnerships.
