The America’s Coal Association today praised the bipartisan introduction of the National Miners Day Resolution, led by Senator Jim Justice (R-WV) and Senator Ruben Gallego (D-AZ), recognizing December 6, 2025, as National Miners Day and celebrating the contributions of America’s miners.

America’s Coal Associations issued the following statement applauding President Trump and the National Energy Dominance Council for today’s major policy and regulatory actions involving several important energy and regulatory initiatives spanning the Department of Energy, the Department of Interior, and the Environmental Protection Agency. Coined “Coal Day 2.0” by EPA Administrator Zeldin, the three agencies jointly detailed plans and policies to further advance President Trump’s Executive Orders regarding coal, coal-fired power plants, energy security, and to implement the coal-related provisions of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act.

America’s Coal Associations, representing state and national advocates of both thermal and metallurgical coal, strongly condemns the 60 Plus Association for aligning itself with pro-ESG financial giants BlackRock, State Street, and Vanguard, and against American energy producers harmed by ESG-driven policies.

America’s Coal Associations, comprised of state and national advocates of thermal and metallurgical coal, proudly embraces a provision in the One Big Beautiful Bill Act that expands a tax credit for advanced manufacturing to include metallurgical coal used in the production of steel, consistent with the Department of Energy’s classification of met coal at a critical mineral.
