“Much of the coal-producing areas of Appalachia and elsewhere are already in bad economic shape,” International President Cecil E. Roberts said. “Washington has taken little action to address it over the past decade. That must change. And as we confront a next wave of energy transition, we must take steps now to ensure that things do not get worse for coal miners, their families and communities, but in fact get better.”
Sincerely,
The UMWA Activist Team
