A $700 Million Tombstone: The Trump Administration's Last-Ditch Effort to Bury America's Energy Future
The Trump administration is invoking the Cold War-era Defense Production Act to spend nearly $700 million on supporting existing coal-fired power plants, building new ones, and constructing a coal export terminal, aiming to create or support over 14,000 jobs.
