ANS Nuclear Policy Wire

News Christmas in May?   The House Appropriations Committee released the text of its final FY17 omnibus appropriations bill last night, which would fund the federal government through September 30. It includes $1.02B for nuclear energy research, development, and demonstration activities and $905M for the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.    We have also pulled the nuclear-related pages from the conference report.    Barring any last-minute controversy, Congress should send the bill to the President's desk this week or next.
