About this listen

Nuclear energy is part of Tennessee’s past and present. Oak Ridge played an important role in the Manhattan Project during WW2, and today, 48% of our state’s energy comes from nuclear energy.

In this episode of the Spirit of Bipartisanship, hosts Angie Lawless and Brandon Miller sit down with Republican Rep. Clark Boyd, who chairs the business and utilities subcommittee where nuclear energy is a conversation, and Democratic Rep. Sam McKenzie, a retired Oak Ridge physicist, to learn about the push to build a first of its kind nuclear reactor right here in Tennessee.
