HR 788

This bill designates April 10, 2025, as "Texas Nuclear Legislative Day" at the State Capitol, serving as a ceremonial recognition of the nuclear energy industry's contributions to Texas. The resolution highlights that nuclear power is Texas's fourth-largest energy source, with two operating plants (Comanche Peak and South Texas Project) that generate over 5,000 megawatts of electricity, power nearly three million homes, and employ approximately 2,200 Texans. Rather than creating new policy or law, this is a symbolic measure that acknowledges the nuclear industry's role in meeting Texas's growing energy needs and recognizes the state's educational programs, uranium mining expansion, and position as home to key nuclear facilities including the Pantex Plant.
