Unions Sell Out Their Own Workers for the Biden Energy Plan

Last week, the United Mine Workers of America union endorsed Biden's energy policies.

So now we have the Pipefitters Union against pipelines and the coal miners union against coal.

The livelihoods of more than 50,000 coal miners just got sold down the river by their own union bosses.

For what? So these miners can be given Biden welfare checks, or so mining jobs, which typically pay $75,000 a year, can be replaced with solar panel installation? Ask any miner about that trade, as I have, and they will laugh in your face.

United Mine Workers of America president Benedict Arnold - actually, his name is Cecil Roberts - conceded that his union members "May lose a few more jobs here," but he defended his capitulation to the Biden anti-coal radicals by saying: "We're trying to, first of all, insert ourselves to the extent that we can in this conversation because our people, a lot of coal miners in this country, their families have suffered already some traumatic losses."

We still get about twice as much energy from coal as from wind and solar.

Nikkei Asia reports that China has "An addiction to coal," and its use of coal is rapidly rising, not falling.
