As a constituent I strongly urge you to consider the following. If we want to make America truly energy independent I urge you to consider Thorium Molten Salt Reactors. A single thorium rich mine could keep the US energy independent for thousands of years while the waste and byproduct of thorium is merely a FRACTION of that of other more traditional nuclear reactors while being self regulating and with almost no chance of a melt down. China has already built, powered on, tested, and reloaded the worlds first true Thorium Molten Salt reactor. We could shift from coal, which no matter what the industry says - it isn't clean, to clean, powerful, abundant, thorium. I urge you to advocate for thorium as the power generation technology of America's future.
This is bigger than your stock market portfolio, this is about balancing out America's needs for energy, the environment, and to out compete China in building, deploying, and providing cheap plentiful power America which could be a major step in enticing many industries BACK to the United States.
Please consider that Thorium Molten Salt reactors could be the biggest boon to our economy since the Model T production line. Cheap clean energy could lead to the second American Industrial Revolution.
