A Busy Week For MTR

Wow! Last week was exciting.

In West Viriginia the Young Dem’s passed a multi-pronged resolution on coal and green jobs that included a call for No New Mountaintop Removal Permits. See the full story here.

The Washington Post wrote an extensive article on the issue featuring the direct connection between Washington DC power companies and MTR companies. “God gave us coal to mine, then, didn’t He?”

MTR was also featured on the Kojo Nnamdi show, and Mary Anne was a guest speaker on the Bob Kincaid show (live from the Congressional reception).
