comes to political support from both sides of the aisle...when oil was just gushing out of the ground, no one really cared to see nuclear power flourish, especially in states that had large fossil fuel interests...but now that we have to squeeze rocks to get it and the cumulative effects of fossil fueled CO2 emissions are being felt, there's perhaps a new 'attitude' toward this technology...as for other states that are a bit 'bluer', the reality of what it takes (in $$$, land use and reliability) to go 100% Renewable is coming into view and can't be ignored...so, although not 'timely' or wisely anticipated, cold hard facts are beginning to shift national focus toward Nuclear Power (see link on Biden admin view of NP in reply to Baron).
I'll say it again...make your voice heard to those who need to know what you think...your Senators and Representatives.
