You'll need to do a lot of convincing to get your fellow GOP members into backing more resources for fusion. The ITER is gonna cost 5 billion and it still will be a research infrastructure.
This is one issue where the USA got burnt, they were pushing for inertial confinent but it was decided to go forward with magnetic confinement and thus they designed a tokamak around the JET experience and results.
