Since coming to Congress in 2011, I have made it one of my top priorities to keep America the world leader in nuclear technologies and advance nuclear power, research, and technologies throughout our great nation. I am proud that because of my efforts to increase funding and support from Congress for all things nuclear, we are seeing breakthroughs in nuclear fusion, cancer-curing isotopes, safer and more effective advanced nuclear power reactors, and unlocking the mysteries of the atom.\u201d\n\n\u201cAs a Tennessean and Representative for Tennessee\u2019s Third Congressional District, I am especially proud to have made East Tennessee the number one place in the U.S. for advancements in new nuclear. It\u2019s one of my proudest accomplishments that I have built the strong Chattanooga-Oak Ridge partnership that is developing not only new nuclear technology and research but also advancing state-of-the-art technologies like quantum and supercomputing.\u201d\n\n\u201cAs Chairman of the Energy and Water Subcommittee of Appropriations, I am very aware of the unbelievable efforts taking place coast-to-coast from Oak Ridge, Tennessee to Hanford, Washington to Los Alamos, New Mexico to Long Island, New York. I\u2019m proud to be the champion for America\u2019s entire nuclear sector from sea to shining sea. The Energy and Water bill that I have written will advance our nuclear industry, make America safer, and ensure we do not fall behind in developing new nuclear technologies and sciences.\u201d\n\n\u201cI am committed that I will do everything in my power to be the strongest advocate for strengthening America\u2019s nuclear leadership here at home and abroad. Our great nation was the first to fully harness the power of the atom 80 years ago, and the United States must continue to lead the way.\u201d", 1, "2026-03-30T01:40:41Z", "2026-04-08T00:18:03Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://fleischmann.house.gov/media/press-releases/fleischmann-receives-distinguished-leadership-award-from-the-united-states-nuclear-industry-council"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 1.0611899197101593, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
