Haley Slams Reid's Rejection of Yucca Nuclear Waste Site

S.C. candidate criticizes Reid's campaign against Yucca Mountain
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., is squandering billions of dollars in trying to terminate the Yucca Mountain nuclear-waste project, said Nikki Haley, a gubernatorial candidate in South Carolina. About $20 billion has been invested in the repository, including $1.2 billion from South Carolina, Haley said. "President Obama and Harry Reid are willing to shut down Yucca and make South Carolina a permanent dumping ground to save Harry Reid's Senate seat," she added.
