Ford vetoes coal mine environmental bill
President Ford vetoed a bill to shield environments from coal strip mining, saying it would raise unemployment and consumer fuel costs. He claimed as many as 36,000 jobs would be lost and electric bills would rise while U.S. oil dependence and energy shortages grow. The veto follows prior near-identical proposals and a close House vote is anticipated.
