President Trump is expected to announce $700 million in support for the U.S. coal industry, including funding for 13 coal-fired power plants, new coal plants in Alaska and West Virginia, and a coal export terminal in California. The initiative aims to create or support over 14,000 jobs in coal, construction, rail, and maritime industries, using authority under a Cold War-era national defense law.
