"The closure of these plants will have significant impacts on local economy & workers. In days & months ahead, I'm committed to fighting for these jobs & helping create additional good paying jobs, as well as creating a clean energy econ w/ policies like my Clean Future Fund Act."

"Unfortunately, Pres. Trump & Congressional Republicans have pursued policies that hurt nuclear energy & the thousands of good paying jobs that they support. The Trump Admin passed rule to nullify IL's clean energy program that supported nuclear power plants like Byron & Dresden."

"And Congressional Republicans supported the Trump Administration's efforts to overturn the Obama-era Clean Power Plan, which helped support nuclear energy."

"I encourage Rep. Kinzinger & entire IL Congressional Delegation to work w/ me to undo the disastrous policies put into place by the Trump Admin & Congressional Republicans, which have hurt these plants & employees, & work to pass smart legislation that supports clean energy jobs."
