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.
