Part of Obama's stimlus package gives a fifty billion dollar federal loan guarantee for "innovative" technologies, although a dozen different technologies qualify among them are nuclear power and clean coal technology. As I stated during the election, americans were without a choice on nuclear power. The technology can't find funding on wall street due to its high cost and the danger it presents to surrounding communities. To find out more about this provision included in the stimulus package check out the article below from the Washington Post. I also included a link to the Public Citizen page on Nuclear Power.
