WASHINGTON – U.S. Senator John Cornyn (R-TX) met yesterday with Abilene Christian University (ACU) President Dr. Phil Schubert and Blair Schroeder to discuss ACU’s NEXT Lab, a molten salt research reactor, which Sen. Cornyn saw being built in Abilene a few years ago. This cutting-edge project will help put Texas at the forefront of advanced nuclear and medical research, create high-skilled jobs, and develop technologies to strengthen America’s energy security.
