The growing demands of AI and modern industry require more affordable, reliable electricity which coal delivers. The West Gateway export terminal alone will open critical new pathways for Wyoming coal to reach global markets. Americans cannot afford an energy policy that leaves them in the dark, and with this investment, President Trump is making sure they never will.” Facebook X Instagram
