Support for new nuclear power plants in Minnesota

[Roll Tide]

I appreciate you letting us have a tiny part in this victory. If the future of nuclear is going to be bright in the US, it will take many similar actions in many states. Great start!

Mere hours ago, the Minnesota Republican Party resolution to support nuclear power as a state energy source passed with a resounding 82% of the vote.  Thank you for your input, offers of help, and expertise.  It gave my group (of two) a lot of confidence and was used to build the basis of some of the print media campaigning.

I plan on contacting Great River Energy and Excel Energy and letting them know.  My understanding is that Excel owns the two reactor campuses in Minnesota.

Our government only works when we get involved, it would seem.

So..... What does that exactly mean?  "the Minnesota Republican Party resolution to support nuclear power as a state energy source passed" 

That the republican party supports nuclear power in the state of Minnesota, right?  What effect does this particular victory have on the future of Nuclear Power in Minnesota?  As you can tell I'm not exactly "up" on the entire political process.  I'm guessing this was the initial step in a big bureaucratic process. What is the next step?  Are you getting support from Xcel on this?  Have you met Ellen Anderson yet? (State Senator Ellen Anderson District 66)  Ask her what she thinks of Nuclear Energy.  She's on the "other" side.
