Description (excerpt):

The nuclear energy industry plays an important role in job creation and economic growth, providing both nearterm and lasting employment and economic benefits. The 100 nuclear reactors in the U.S. generate substantial domestic economic value in electricity sales — $40-$50 billion each year — with over 100,000 workers contributing to production.
