Daines Calls Obama's Coal Regulations Misguided

Montana's Republican Congressman Steve Daines sent a press release about passing bipartisan legislation to protect Montana jobs and Montanans' access to affordable energy by stopping the Obama Administration's efforts to develop new job-killing coal regulations.

According to Daines release, H.R. 2824, the Preventing Government Waste and Protecting Coal Mining Jobs in America Act, would save American jobs and taxpayer dollars by preventing the Obama Administration from continuing a wasteful process to develop new job‐destroying coal regulations. The bill would implement the 2008 Stream Buffer Zone Rule and establish a responsible process for developing a rule that balances coal mining and environmental protection.

In his release, Daines said, "The Obama administration's misguided, job-killing regulations are a direct threat to Montanans' access to affordable energy and hundreds of good-paying Montana jobs."
