Trump’s own EPA warns that GOP proposed coal rules are a disaster for American health.

1,400 more pre-mature deaths annually, 15,000 new cases of upper-resp problems. All for an industry that employs less people than Arby’s.

The GOP isn’t about jobs, it’s about greed. #BeAVoter
The shrinking coal industry employs 76,000. Clean energy is a growing field of more than 3.2 million.

Dems want America to lead the world in modern energy, investing in training for jobs in demand.

GOP offers a red tide of disease and pollution.

Better make it BLUE. #BeAVoter
The cost of new EPA coal rules: up to 1,400 more pre-mature deaths per year from heart and lung disease, with 15,000 new cases of upper respiratory problems. In contrast, Obama era rules were found to prevent between 1,500 and 3,600 deaths per year.

The coal industry is a shrinking, 19th century industry employing 76,000 people nationally, less than Arby’s.

The modern green energy industry is growing, already employing more than 3.2 million.

Coal is a terrible investment. So much for deal making.

It’s not just coal. The GOP is trying to roll back vehicle emissions standards (which car manufacturers don’t want) and even wants to bring ASBESTOS back into US markets.

The largest world asbestos exporter? Of course it’s Russia.
