Featured Members of Congress
On March 01, 2008 Jim Matheson was featured on the homepage of OpenCongress:
Jim Matheson (D-UT) has added his support to a grass-roots fight against the Utah firm <a href="http://www.energysolutions.com/">EnergySolutions's</a> proposal to import up to 20,000 tons of nuclear waste from Italy. "I recognize that small amounts of waste have been permitted entry into the U.S. in the past; however, encouraging other nations to actively pursue disposal options in the U.S. seems shortsighted at best," he wrote to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
