to me Dear Michele, Nuclear Matters is excited to announce our newest member of the Nuclear Matters Leadership Council – Dr. Larry Lindsey! Dr. Lindsey is the former director of the National Economic Council and assistant to former President George W. Bush. He supports Nuclear Matters' mission of preserving existing nuclear energy plants, because he appreciates the significant role that the nuclear fleet plays in promoting and broadening America's economic well-being. "Maintaining the existing nuclear fleet is an obvious way to help ensure a brighter economic future for America thanks to their far-reaching role in providing electricity to help communities and the economy growing," Dr. Lindsey said. Dr. Lindsey joins Nuclear Matters on the heels of a new report issued by The Brattle Group which underscores the substantial economic contributions that the existing nuclear fleet brings to the country. That report found that existing nuclear energy plants contribute $60 billion annually to gross domestic product (GDP), 475,000 full-time jobs (direct and secondary) and that energy from nuclear energy plants prevents 573 million tons of carbon dioxide emissions. "Larry Lindsey adds to the broad and bipartisan leadership of Nuclear Matters, underscoring that support for the existing nuclear energy fleet is an easy public policy choice," former Senator Judd Gregg (R-NH), co-chair of Nuclear Matters, said. "As Dr. Lindsey concurs, we must do everything we can to further the discussion around how best to preserve existing nuclear plants for the benefit of our energy and economic security."
