Governor Fletcher and House Speaker Jody Richards have struck a deal to pass a massive package of new subsidies for the coal industry, including $300 million for Peabody Energy, the world’s largest coal company. A “Special Interest Session” is expected to start on August 13th.
Join KFTC and our allies in saying NO to taxpayer subsidies for coal!
