Hudson: Obama Administration’s War on Coal Destroys Jobs
WASHINGTON, DC - Today, U.S. Representative Richard Hudson (NC-08) released the following statement in reaction to the Obama Administration’s proposed Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regulation requiring power plants to cut carbon emissions by thirty percent:
“The Obama Administration’s war on coal threatens over 800,000 jobs across the country and means higher energy costs for everyone. In North Carolina over the past year, nearly 38% of our electricity came from coal. Instead of the government trying to pick winners and losers to appeal to deep-pocketed environmental donors, the Administration should adopt a balanced, market-led approach that utilizes all of our resources to create a more abundant, affordable, and sustainable energy supply that will unlock the potential for a more prosperous America.”
