Mandate

Mandate Ch. 12 (Energy) — American Energy Dominance priorities: ensure that the Nuclear Regulatory Commission facilitates rather than hampers private-sector nuclear energy innovation and deployment.

Undo plan

1) Accelerate advanced-reactor licensing with safety margins intact. 2) Increase NRC staff/fees predictability for applicants. 3) Avoid politicized weakening of emergency preparedness requirements. 4) Harmonize with NE/DOE demonstration schedules. 5) Verify: median licensing timelines and inspection findings.
