Trump pledges to bring back coal jobs in Appalachia
The article outlines Trump’s pledge to revive coal mining in Appalachia amid plummeting jobs from 68,000 to 56,700 and shifting to cheaper natural gas. It notes unclear policy specifics, EPA regulation debates, and Wyoming's large remaining coal reserves as factors limiting a comeback. Clinton's comments on moving away from coal are referenced and labeled a misstatement.
