Matthew Marzano confirmed as newest NRC commissioner
A nuclear engineer, former reactor operator, and nuclear navy educator earned U.S. Senate approval today to take a seat on the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
Matthew Marzano was confirmed in a 50–45 vote in the Senate and steps into an existing five-year term that will expire June 30, 2028. He joins the five-member commission, which has been without a tiebreaker vote since June 2023, when Jeff Baran’s term expired.
Marzano brings more than a decade of industry experience both working in nuclear plants and advising energy policy on Capitol Hill.
The Bylaws and Rules were last updated August 2024.

Resources available to Professional Divisions, Local Sections and Student Sections to aid in the adoption of the new Standard Bylaws are available on the Bylaws and Rules Committee page.
