“As a leader in advancing nuclear power in Wisconsin, I look forward to continuing this work by serving on our state’s Nuclear Power Summit Board. The Summit will be a key opportunity to showcase our state’s research, development and manufacturing sectors—all of which make Wisconsin ready to lead in the nuclear industry.
