And this guy is a Senator from Illinois? Looks like a lot of coal on that map.
It’s not just the coal miners that should be concerned. How about every employee of every electric company in the US? I live relatively close to two Duke Energy coal power plants, and there are hundreds of employees that would be impacted by “bankrupting” electric companies that use coal.
And on top of that, “electric costs naturally have to skyrocket” which means that every person in the country is impacted by this statement.
This is very damaging to Obama, especially on top of the other news items breaking in the last few days.
