A resolution designating December 2, 2024, as "World Nuclear Energy Day".

This resolution designates December 2, 2024, as "World Nuclear Energy Day" to commemorate the historical milestones of nuclear energy development, including the first controlled nuclear chain reaction (1942) and the first commercial nuclear power plant (1957). It recognizes nuclear energy's role in providing nearly 20% of U.S. electricity, supporting over 70,000 direct jobs, and contributing to carbon-free power and national security. The resolution encourages public acknowledgment of nuclear energy's contributions to clean power, innovation, and global energy leadership, without creating new laws or affecting specific groups.
