Moore yesterday applauded President Donald J. Trump and the U.S. Department of Energy's decision to build a new coal-fired power plant in West Virginia\u2019s Second Congressional District. DOE\u2019s selection of the TerraSpark Energy Campus under its Coal-Based Power and Energy Infrastructure initiative will bring nearly 1,000 high-quality jobs to the district and marks a major step toward realizing President Trump\u2019s vision for American energy dominance.\n\nThe DOE's selection of the TerraSpark project represents a significant milestone for West Virginia and reinforces the state's position as a national leader in energy production. The TerraSpark Energy Campus will leverage West Virginia's abundant coal reserves and next-generation energy technology to provide reliable and affordable electricity and ensure that America\u2019s future is coal-fired.\n\nCongressman Moore has been a strong advocate for policies that support American energy production, strengthen the nation's electric grid, and revitalize the coal industry as the cornerstone of U.S. energy security. As electricity demand continues to rise from advanced manufacturing, artificial intelligence, and data center development, projects like TerraSpark will help ensure the United States has the reliable baseload power necessary to remain globally competitive while reducing dependence on foreign energy sources.\n\nCongressman Moore continues working with federal, state, and local partners to advance projects that create jobs, strengthen American energy security, and unleash the full potential of West Virginia's energy resources.\n\nCongressman Riley M. Moore released the following statement:\n\n\u201cI want to thank President Trump for being the first president in my lifetime to prioritize America\u2019s coal industry and recognize the vital role that beautiful, clean coal plays in our nation\u2019s energy future. The TerraSpark Energy Campus, which will bring nearly 1,000 high-quality jobs back to my district, is exactly the kind of energy project that will help unleash our nation\u2019s abundant natural resources and deliver on President Trump\u2019s vision for American energy dominance. TerraSpark will provide affordable, reliable electricity to power America\u2019s industrial resurgence, strengthen our nation\u2019s energy security, drive down energy prices for West Virginians, and sends a message that America\u2019s future is coal-fired.\u201d\n\n###", 1, "2026-06-27T21:44:12Z", "2026-06-27T22:11:26Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://rileymoore.house.gov/media/press-releases/congressman-riley-m-moore-applauds-doe-selection-terraspark-energy-campus"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 0.6297610234469175, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
