Right Voices: Rep. Jeff Duncan Outlines Policies to Unleash American Nuclear Power

In this episode of Right Voices, we spoke with Rep. Jeff Duncan, leads a bipartisan coalition of lawmakers introducing sweeping reforms to the nation’s regulatory system to deploy more nuclear power production.

Congressman Duncan joined us to discuss his proposed policies to unleash American nuclear power.

While nuclear power is safe, clean, and reliable, antiquated laws and regulations have hindered its deployment.

To address these challenges Rep. Duncan introduced the Atomic Energy Advancement Act.  The AEAA, which recently passed the House of Representatives, includes several reforms to drive nuclear forward.
 
These include modernizing the permitting process, directing the Nuclear Regulatory Commission to consider the benefits of nuclear energy in its mission, and strengthening international competitiveness through trade and exports.
