AG Coleman reacts to executive order involving coal power plants

HENDERSON, ky. (WEHT) – Attorney General Russell Coleman praised an executive order to prevent the closing of coal-fired power plants.

AG Coleman said during an event at the White House, President Trump signed an executive order intended to prevent the closing of coal-fired power plants to meet the rising demand for electricity. The order also directed federal agencies to rescind policies from the previous administration that sought to move away from coal production.
