We need to provide from the energy point with energy self-sufficiency. Wyoming is the No.1 coal producer in the United States. Number one in uranium. Number two for natural gas, so we've done a considerable amount for the energy need of the nation. I'm going to continue to work to make sure Wyoming is part of that picture. Also we have incredible renewable sources, like the wind. I'm working for renewables as well.

It’s important that we once again restore America’s ability to build nuclear power plants. We’ve lost that now. We have stopped the production of these plants, so to speak, for almost two decades. So it’s time to recognize that it’s a safe form of energy. It produces nearly zero CO2 compared to a coal-fired plant. Zero. Right now, we rely on nuclear power for about 20 percent of our energy. I’d like to see in the next decade or 15 years, perhaps that 20 percent can go as high as 30 or 35 percent.

So the point is to make coal to liquid clean and sequestration complete. It's going to take billions and billions of dollars and it has to be done by the federal government. It has to be a Manhattan project, but it's much more important.

It all comes from Hollywood, from the far left, and the ones who are the same as the extremist animal right activists and people who bomb construction sites, but it's a very well funded extreme group. That's why the politicians are inclined to act like they are supporting it.
