Boucher and Rahall Named to National Energy Policy Negotiating Team
U S House negotiators Nick Rahall and Rick Boucher were named to work with Senate conferees on final National Energy Policy legislation. Rahall criticized the House bill for taxing Social Security and Medicare to fund oil company breaks, while asserting the Senate version balances coal needs. Boucher aims to boost coal use via incentives for new coal powered plants and funding for clean coal tech, arguing this supports Southwest Virginia and southern West Virginia economies and energy independence.
