Bipartisan bill aims to promote nuclear fusion development
Curtis
Cantwell
Sens. Maria Cantwell (D., Wash.) and John Curtis (R., Utah) have introduced a bill that would enable nuclear fusion energy technologies to have access to the federal advanced manufacturing production tax credit.
The companion version of the bill was introduced in the House by Reps. Carol Miller (R., W.Va.), Suzan DelBene (D., Wash.), Claudia Tenney (R., N.Y.), and Don Beyer (D., Va.)
The Fusion Advanced Manufacturing Parity Act extends the federal advanced manufacturing production credit (45X) by adding a 25 percent tax credit for companies that are domestically manufacturing fusion energy components.

Earning a credential--whether it be a license, certification, or degree--is much more than the letters after your name or a certificate on the wall. It's a way to gain specific knowledge and skills, demonstrate your credibility and value to employers, and help you stand out among your peers. During this session, we will explore how various credentials can make a difference in your career in the nuclear industry and which credentials are most consistent with your professional goals. Panelists will share their stories about the impacts these credentials have had in their careers, and you will have ample opportunity to interact and ask questions. The credentials covered during this session include: Professional Engineer (P.E.) license, Senior Reactor Operator (SRO) certification/license, Project Management Professional (PMP) certification, Master of Business Administration (MBA), and advanced engineering degrees (master's, Ph.D.).
