Keeping Illinois Nuclear Plants Open: Good For Our Communities & Illinois

Ben Lowers, Police Chief in Clinton, Illinois:

Outdated energy policies are forcing nuclear energy plants nationwide to close down and Clinton could be next. These closures devastate local communities. Jobs are lost. Services are cut. Last year, a Vermont town eliminated its entire police department after its local plant closed down.

Clinton cannot afford this and neither can Illinois. That is why I support a legislative proposal called the Low Carbon Portfolio Standard. This proposal is good for our state’s economic health and would help prevent plants like Clinton Power Station from closing.

I urge our legislators in Springfield to act now and vote YES on the Low Carbon Portfolio Standard - House Bill 3293 & Senate Bill 1585.
