TRUMP ENCOURAGES NUCLEAR ENERGY
______
HON. JOE WILSON
of south carolina
in the house of representatives
Friday, March 27, 2026
Mr. WILSON of South Carolina. Mr. Speaker, I am grateful that
President Donald Trump has taken successful actions to reduce
government regulations, especially in the field of energy, creating
jobs.
Last month, the Department of Energy gave approval for the first,
full-power portable microreactor test to Radiant Industries of
California.
Microreactors are smaller than traditional nuclear power plants,
transportable in a single shipping container--with one-day
installation.
The Savannah River Site in Aiken, South Carolina, announced three
public-private partnerships to develop small modular nuclear reactor
technologies, ideal by military facilities and islands such as Guam and
Puerto Rico.
President Trump, Energy Secretary Chris Wright, and Nuclear
Regulatory Commission Member David Wright, along with Thomas McAllister
with Department of Energy Congressional Affairs, are working to make
America energy independent, reliable, and secure.
In conclusion, God Bless Our Troops as the Global War on Terrorism
continues. Trump is reinstituting Peace Through Strength, revealing war
criminal Putin lies, insulting and mocking Trump as war criminal Putin
provides drones to Iran to murder American troops. War criminal Putin
insults Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu providing drones to Iran to
murder Israeli civilians. War criminal Putin provides satellite
targeting information to kill Americans and Israelis along with
courageous allies of Lebanon, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, UAE, Kuwait,
Bahrain, Oman, Yemen and Jordan as war criminal Putin bombs Syria and
Turkiye and Azerbaijan.
