Inside the proposal that could reshape U.S. nuclear power
Friday, 20 March, 2026

The Nuclear Regulatory Commission is considering scrapping a decades-old radiation safety standard. It’s a move that would support the Trump administration’s push to expand nuclear power in the United States, but it would also raise key questions about public health risks and the industry’s standards. POLITICO’s AJ Camacho breaks down the proposal, where congressional lawmakers and the nuclear industry stand, and the potential public health concerns. Francisco "A.J."
