Senator Cynthia Lummis has expressed her approval of President Trump's recent executive order supporting the coal industry. The order reverses policies implemented during the Biden administration.

“I am thrilled that President Trump is reversing the failed energy policies of the Biden administration and officially lifting this ridiculous moratorium on federal coal leasing,” stated Lummis. She attributed the previous administration's policies to a loss of jobs and higher energy costs, positing they benefited foreign adversaries. Lummis emphasized Wyoming's readiness, as a major coal producer, to assist in advancing American energy.

The executive order, titled "Executive Actions to Support the Coal Industry," aims to boost domestic coal production.
