GRIMES STATEMENT ON THE EPA’S NEW OVERREACHING REGULATIONS

FRANKFORT – Today, Alison Lundergan Grimes released the following statement on the EPA’s new overreaching regulations:

“President Obama’s new EPA rule is more proof that Washington isn’t working for Kentucky. Coal keeps the lights on in the Commonwealth, providing a way for thousands of Kentuckians to put food on their tables. When I’m in the U.S. Senate, I will fiercely oppose the President’s attack on Kentucky’s coal industry because protecting our jobs will be my number one priority.”
