Coal Club. This award honors the Chairman\u2019s lifetime achievements and dedication to the utilization of coal, our nation\u2019s most abundant, affordable energy resource.\n\n\u201cI am deeply honored to receive this recognition from the D.C. Coal Club. I understand all too well the role that coal plays in our state and as part of our identity as West Virginians. West Virginia energy has been used to fortify our country, connect our country with railroads, bridges, and highways, and provide access to reliable electricity. That work is something to be proud of and something we must continue to invest in.\n\n\u201cThroughout my time in Washington, supporting our coal industry and coal workers has been one of my top priorities. It\u2019s why I founded the Congressional Coal Caucus during my time in the House, and it\u2019s why I\u2019ve consistently led on legislation and initiatives that have supported coal. My work in both the House and the Senate, and my current priorities as Chairman of the EPW Committee, have and will continue to defend American coal and the critical role it plays in our nation\u2019s security and prosperity,\u201d Chairman Capito said.\n\nU.S. Senator Shelley Moore Capito (R-W.Va.) receives the Senator Jennings Randolph Lifetime Achievement Award from the Washington, D.C. Coal Club in Washington, D.C. on Wednesday, December 3, 2025.\n\n# # #", 1, "2026-03-30T01:40:41Z", "2026-04-06T20:09:11Z"]], "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://www.capito.senate.gov/news/press-releases/photos-dc-coal-club-honors-chairman-capito-with-lifetime-achievement-award"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 2.0105079747736454, "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"}
