by Wyoming Liberty Group President Trump is going all-in on nuclear power. That was the overriding message when the president recently put his signature to one of his latest moves. There was no need to read the tea leaves. The White House declared its clear intent with this announcement: "President Trump Signs Executive Orders to Usher in a Nuclear...
In this episode of Eye on the Issues, we sit down with Jenny Schucker—founder of Academy of the Winds, a Montessori school in Lander—to unpack the fallout from the recent judicial halt on Wyoming's Education Savings Accounts (ESAs). Jenny shares how the ESA freeze has impacted her school's enrollment and budget, and more importantly, the families l...
In this episode of Eye on the Issues, we speak with Diane D'Arrigo of the Nuclear Information and Resource Service (NIRS). This organization has worked with communities and policymakers on nuclear waste issues since the late 1970s. This conversation explores how radioactive waste is generated through nuclear power, the types of materials it l...
Summary: 26LSO-0073v0.6 allows nuclear reactor manufacturers in Wyoming to store spent nuclear fuel (SNF) on-site, but only if the fuel is generated as part of the manufacturing process. While the bill attempts to limit what kind of fuel can be stored, the language is vague, allowing the federal Nuclear Regulatory Commission (N...
by Wyoming Liberty Group A nuclear accident isn't the only way a power plant can unintentionally cause radiation exposure that can harm you.

As someone who teaches and supports nuclear energy, Prof. Erickson offers an informed perspective—but even she raises concerns about how nuclear projects are being handled, particularly rega...
by Wyoming Liberty Group Sometimes, to understand something locally, you need to look globally. Sometimes, you have to go all the way to Germany. Such is the case for us in Wyoming, as powerful forces continue to push for making the Cowboy State a cradle-to-grave operation for all things nuclear, including storing spent nuclear fuel from reactor ma...
by Wyoming Liberty Group Who can predict what will happen in a thousand years? Or tens of thousands of years? Better yet, what will happen in fifty years? No one, of course, can reliably say what will happen in the future—and yet, that is one of the chief questions that comes up when political and business forces talk about making Wyoming a storage...
In this episode of Eye on the Issues, we sit down with Mary Olson, founder of the Gender and Radiation Impact Project.
