I hope to see a breeder reactor like Superphénix built in Illinois in my lifetime.
It would close the fuel cycle and turn nuclear into a truly 'renewable' technology. #SB76

Massive victory
You can draw a straight line from hardworking Canadian nuclear advocates like @cadlam to this PM Trudeau comment.
Hope to see the same of @GovPritzker soon. #SB76

TRUDEAU: “WE’RE GOING TO HAVE TO BE DOING MUCH MORE NUCLEAR.”
“…A return to nuclear which we’re very serious about.”
These comments in a meeting with the German President Steinmeier whose country foolishly just phased out its last reactors…

If you made it this far and want to get involved
Please consider calling your Illinois state house rep in support of the bill #SB76, which will legalize the construction of more nuclear plants.
Our future generations would appreciate the gesture!

Poetic juxtaposition. #SB76
California failed to overturn their nuclear construction ban with #AB65.
Now is our time to show them how it’s done in Illinois with #SB76! Call your house rep today in support!

I was super busy with work this week and missed it, but it looks like California AB65 (bill to allow new SMR construction) died in committee. Bummer.

My #SB76 dream
Illinois sites a reactor like this in Zion with district heating for Waukegan, Zion, and Kenosha

C’mon Illinois, we have to beat California in our race to legalize the construction of new nuclear plants!
Call and email your state house rep in support of #HB1079/#SB76 !
#SB76 has passed the Senate, now we need to pass the House

🚨Happening now:
#SB76 brought to the floor in the Illinois Senate!
@SenPatrickjoyce testifies in favor of the bill!
And #SB76 is out of committee! Recommended do-pass 🙌
Thank you @SenatorRezin for helping Illinois build on its world-leading nuclear heritage
