On Thursday Aug.27th employees at Byron and Dresden Nuclear power plants were abruptly notified that without changes to Illinois law they would be closing as of September and November of 2021. The closure of both Byron and Dresden will have a devastating impact on the state itself along with 1000’s of Families, local Businesses, and surrounding areas. Each plant employs over 1600 people, directly and indirectly. Governor J.B. Pritzker has the power to save our plants, our jobs and our communities.
