Regarding S.B. 420 – Coal Plant Modernization
To the West Virginia State Legislature:
I am writing to urge your full support for S.B. 420. This critical legislation is essential for securing West Virginia’s coal-fired generation for the next generation.
Our state's energy foundation relies on coal plants that provide baseload power, support thousands of local jobs, and keep electricity rates stable for families. By modernizing these plants to operate through 2050, we protect our economic backbone and energy independence.
West Virginia stands for coal, reliability, and jobs. Please stand with us by voting YES on S.B. 420.
