Mr. Allen, I have such good news for you, because in the last Congress, when we had Chair Duncan of the subcommittee, and I was the ranking Democrat on this subcommittee, We passed the advance act, which we actually all voted for on both sides of the aisle in this committee. It went to the floor and we passed it and President Biden signed it. And what this bill was designed to do is, is exactly what you're concerned about, which is to streamline and modernize the regulations around nuclear power. (00:14–00:22)
