YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Senator Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI) sounds the alarm over what he calls a “hostile takeover” of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission under the Trump administration. Whitehouse slams the fossil fuel industry’s grip on U.S. nuclear oversight, exposing a Department of Energy staffer embedded in the NRC without accountability—and a breakdown in the agency’s independence.

With nuclear safety on the line, Whitehouse warns that just one regulatory lapse could unravel years of bipartisan progress toward clean energy and nuclear innovation. This urgent Senate moment demands attention—and action.
