MIDDLEBORO REVIEW AND SO ON
Donald Trump loves to talk about how much he supports the coal industry. But he doesn’t love the coal miners who have kept this industry running. Across the country, miners are contracting black lung at younger and younger ages. Some regions are seeing rates as high as one in five workers! This disease is debilitating. It is deadly. And miners have begged the federal government to keep strong protections in place. But instead of protecting them, the Trump Administration is now considering rolling back black lung protections that miners themselves have begged them to keep in place. Trump’s effort to prop up a dying industry is coming at the expense of the very workers who have paid the price. He is willing to sacrifice people for profit. He is willing to put miners who have already spent decades in dangerous conditions at even greater risk. This is about worker’s rights and environmental justice. These miners have worked in unsafe and dangerous working conditions for generations. Weakening protections for them now will only worsen the harms they’ve already had to endure.

Thanks to your help in 2024, SEEC PAC was able to re-elect over 95% of our pro-environment members to the U.S. House of Representatives — defying the odds on a night where Democrats lost seats. Now we are counting on you to help our SEEC members pass climate, clean energy and environmental justice policies in the 119th Congress while we continue fighting for a sustainable future. The Sustainable Energy and Environment Coalition Political Action Committee (SEEC PAC) is an organization that supports members in the U.S. House of Representatives and candidates who fight for clean energy, climate change solutions, environmental justice, and protection of our nation’s clean air, water, wildlife, and public lands.
