Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Scott Pruitt told dozens of Pennsylvania coal miners Thursday that the “regulatory assault” on their industry is over, and that the environment can be protected without hurting business.
“We’re going to do it the American way, grow jobs and show the rest of the world how it’s done,” Pruitt said before going on a mine tour about 50 miles south of Pittsburgh.
“The regulatory assault is over,” he said, referring to tightened environmental and other regulatory standards on coal and other energy industries under former President Barack Obama. “We’re going to partner together with you.”
Pruitt spoke for less than five minutes to about 100 workers at the Harvey Mine, one of three comprising the nation’s largest underground coal mining complex. It’s run by CNX Coal Resources.
He did not take any questions from the news media, which did not accompany him on the underground tour. …

Or to put it differently, the days of you being unable to feed your families because of regulations made by bureaucrats you buy free deluxe gym memberships for are over.

For now. Kill the EPA.
W-L, Wins-Losses, sports lingo
Pinch me, I think I’m dreaming. Can you believe all this winning?
Sell that coal to China.
Best election ever!
Bout time.
Another recent article explained a brand new coal-fired electricity power plant that ‘collects all the C02’ instead of the natural release into the atmosphere. In other words, a politically correct electricity plant. This is insanity. The next Ice Age is coming. Some real scientists believe it is overdue. The Sun has fewer and fewer sunspots, another indication of the coming cold. By stopping the natural release into the atmosphere of C02 (which used to be called, and still is, plant food) plants will have less C02 to consume, so less 02 will be produced. I know that nature will find its own way to balance it out, I just wish the creepozoid envirofascists would not have such an affect on our wonderful energy producers. I doubt we will ever ‘run out’ of oil. We have only drilled down a few miles into the Earth. We keep finding more and more oil and gas. Research ‘abiotic oil’ and you will be amazed. There are oceans of hydrocarbons on the moons of Jupiter and Saturn. I sincerely doubt that there were dinosaurs and grass savannas on these moons long ago, so ‘fossil fuel’ is not so fossilized. I thank God every day that we have President Trump, and not some creepozoid democRAT. If we do this right, our economy is going to take off, and we will have inexpensive energy, as we always should have had. And inexpensive energy reverberates throughout our economy.
Keep the Faith!
So. Much. Winning! :)
I live in a mining area and I can attest to the fact that things are picking up quickly ... this isn’t just talk , it’s really happening ..I’ve talked to a few miners that have said they have several new contracts already ...we can see this in the local economy and things are already starting to boom again ...
It’s this kind of thing that really shows how much deliberate damage the globalists were doing to us in the past 25 years in this sector ...hell, Trump’s even got the Chinese turning away North Korean coal and buying ours ... Thank you President Trump ... MAGA
I remember when he announced that there were people on here claiming he (Trump) was a raging liberal.
So far, he is the most conservative we have had in a long LONG time.
Another WIN... yep, sure nuff...
Not tired of winning. Don’t believe I ever will be :)
