Evan Jenkins on Energy & Oil

 

 


Fight tooth & nail against the War on Coal

Pres. Obama and his EPA are waging a War on Coal, and Evan will fight it tooth and nail. He'll strongly oppose Obama's cap-and-trade scheme, a carbon tax and job-killing EPA regulations. Evan understands that in West Virginia, coal is not just our economic lifeblood--it makes us who we are. In the state legislature, Jenkins has supported numerous measures to protect the health, safety and pensions of W.V. coal miners, and he is firmly opposed to any cuts to the Federal Black Lung Benefit Program.

Supports energy independence.

Jenkins supports the CC survey question on energy independence

CC.org's self-description: "The Christian Coalition voter guide [is] one of the most powerful tools Christians have ever had to impact our society during elections. This simple tool has helped educate tens of millions of citizens across this nation as to where candidates for public office stand on key faith and family issues.

The Coalition is a political organization, made up of pro-family Americans who care deeply about ensuring that government serves to strengthen and preserve, rather than threaten, our families and our values. To that end, we work continuously to identify, educate and mobilize Christians for effective political action." The CC survey summarizes candidate stances on the following topic: 'Enacting an energy independence plan that creates a free market for all energy sources and encourages homegrown clean energy innovation'
