As someone who spent a solid 5+ years designing/proving these systems are safe, it is extremely nice to hear a representative speak positively of them (Molten Salt Reactors in general). How do you stand on Nuclear in general? What about SMRs and TWRs? Are you for or against re-processing? What do you think is a feasible system for long term storage? What is your counter argument going to be against the people who argue that U-233 is just as weaponizable as Plutonium, and harder to store, and more dangerous to reprocess? Sorry for the slew of quetions. I always donate to the causes of scientifically inclined congressmen, regardless of political inclination. The fact that you are a Constitutionalist makes me wish you were in Texas.

Sorry for the ton of questions, I used to work in the Nuclear Reactor Industry. TWRs have been constructed frequently, they are usually much much much smaller than typical reactors, and very very dangerous.(Read: Bombs).Reprocessing, depending of the methods used, can reduce waste up to an order of magnitude in terms of volume. It simplifies storage significantly.

Thank-you. I could not agree more on the lack of knowledge that typical Congressmen and Women possess on important issues.

As far as your election, I hope you win. Also, congrats on being (from what I can observe of your answers), a Constitutional scholar.
