molten salt reactor technology is making a come back. if the trump administration can ease regulatory burdens, this could be the solution for power in the near future. they can be small scale, they can run on waste from convention reactors, there is no danger of meltdown.

I'm not sure suppressed is the best word for it.
Ignored and unfunded because it didn't make waste that could be enriched for weapons, yes. Suppressed? Maybe. They had a stable reactor test for a while. That was like fifty years ago. There's new interest.
