| http://shuster.house.gov/index.cfm?sectionid=49&itemid=815 | Lame Duck President Continues War on Coal | 2016-12-19 | 2016 | 2016-12 | Republican | House | PA | Bill Shuster | S001154 | shuster.house.gov | legacy | WASHINGTON, DC – Congressman Bill Shuster (R-Hollidaysburg) released the following statement regarding the Obama Administration’s release of its final Stream Protection Rule. “The Obama Administration’s War on Coal has hit our region hard and this latest power grab will do what the other ones have done –grow government and kill jobs,” said Congressman Shuster. “This rule is misguided and wrong for this nation. I will work with my House colleagues and the Trump Administration on turning back this rule and many others from the outgoing administration that stifle our coal and natural gas industry and hold back economic growth in our coal mining communities across Southwestern Pennsylvania and the entire country. These last eight years have been extremely difficult for our coal miners and their families, but things are about to change as we work with a new administration on reducing the size of government and utilizing the energy sources we have here at home.” This rule from the Department of Interior Office of Surface Mining Reclamation and Enforcement would further increase the federal government’s footprint in our domestic energy industry and would effectively eliminate thousands of good paying jobs. ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
