Issue Position

The United States should not be dependent upon other nations for energy fuels. Exploration and drilling for oil, mining for coal, and harvesting natural gas should proceed "full speed ahead."

Wind and solar energy sources are renewable but they are not reliable. Nuclear energy appears to be the most likely source to provide our Nation's long-term energy needs. Although initially extremely expensive, nuclear energy may prove to be the cheapest, safest, and most abundant fuel source.
