Wittman Sends Letter in Support of Genesis Mission

WASHINGTON, D.C. - Congressman Rob Wittman (VA-01) sent a letter with 20 Republican members of the House of Representatives to the U.S. Secretary of Energy, Chris Wright, expressing Congressional support for the Genesis Mission and the energy needed to power the AI future. The Genesis Mission, established in an Executive Order by President Trump on November 24, 2025, will position the United States as a global leader in Artificial Intelligence, strengthening our nation's economic and national security.

"The Genesis Mission correctly identifies that AI is no longer just an economic engine; it is a domain of national security and strategic advantage," said Rep. Wittman. "The economic and national security implications of the Genesis Mission are staggering. By leading the world in fission and fusion deployment, the U.S. will wield energy dominance just as we have with oil and gas. The 'quantum ecosystem' this energy enables will unlock new materials for defense, aerospace, energy, and medicine, securing our supply chains against foreign disruption."
