Rep. Moore Applauds Presidents Trump's Coal Executive Order

Washington, D.C. – Congressman Riley M. Moore issued the below statement applauding President Trump’s new executive order to reinvigorate the American coal industry.

Rep. Moore was a guest at the formal signing ceremony at the White House this afternoon.

Congressman Moore issued the following statement:

“President Trump is the first president in my lifetime to highlight the critical need for coal to power our economy and ensure national security. Today’s executive order confirms our new Golden Age will be coal-fired!

“This action from President Trump sends the right message to our brave miners and the entire energy industry at a time when ‘transitioning away’ from coal and other fossil fuels has been the number one priority of the radical climate cabal.

“We have hundreds of years of coal reserves under our feet in West Virginia, and extracting them will be critical to powering our AI revolution and continuing to provide cheap and reliable electricity for consumers.”
