Is There a Future for Nuclear?

Nuclear Has a Zero Carbon Footprint

The False Promise of Renewables

Statue of Liberty Wind Energy

My “All of the Above” Strategy for Domestic Energy Development Acknowledge that fossil fuels will remain the primary energy sources for the foreseeable future Remove unreasonable restrictions on domestic oil and gas development, especially on outer-continental shelf, Federal lands, and Alaska Rein in subsidies for renewables to subject them to the market test Promote the export of domestic energy, especially natural gas Avoid tax discrimination on the oil and gas industry Approve and expedite construction of Keystone XL Increase Federal loan guarantees for nuclear plants Leave regulation of hydraulic fracturing to the individual states
