Column: Governor has position for everyone on nuclear power – Champaign News-Gazette

Jim Dey: "Politically speaking, the nuclear-power issue is small potatoes. After all, how many people will get excited about legislation that ends a nuclear-power moratorium when all that does is allow the private sector to contemplate but not necessarily pursue such an option? On the other hand, (Gov. JB) Pritzker’s veto won enthusiastic applause from environmental groups, a key component of the state and national political base he’ll need if he runs for a third term as governor or takes a shot at the presidency in 2024 and/or 2028."

Well what we don’t have is a reliable cheap and clean source of electrical power. Those left wing french people get virtually all their electricity from nuclear power plants. Yes, it can be done even in a blue country…..
