“Our long fight against turning Nevada into a nuclear waste dumping ground is one step closer to an end following the NRC’s decision today.  The science is clear; this project was wrong from the start, and I am hopeful the NRC will rule in our favor.  From eliminating funding in the budget to pulling the DOE application, we are closer than ever to putting an end to Yucca Mountain.”

Congresswoman Titus Testifies on Budget Priorities
"During this time of economic uncertainty, it has never been more important than now to closely examine each and every dollar of federal spending.  I appreciate the work you are doing to ensure that all points of view are considered throughout this budget process.  While I am pleased by much of the President’s request, particularly the investments in clean energy technology, I have concerns about some of the tax provisions that are included in the budget outline."
