This is what we get here in Alabama when one of the worst polluting coal fired power plants in the nation gets closed down.
“The Alabama Public Service Commission, the state government body charged with regulating Alabama Power and other utilities in the state, issued a statement blaming the closure on former President Barack Obama specifically, and liberals generally.
“The company has taken every possible step to keep the plant up and running, but the war on coal finally took its toll,” PSC President Twinkle Andress Cavanaugh said in the news release. “Obama said he wanted to make it too expensive to run coal-fired plants, and he did. I commend President Trump for rolling back as many of the Obama mandates as he could. The problem for us here in Alabama was that Obama placed the biggest bullseye on us, and Trump’s valiant effort at finally implementing common sense came along a little too late.”
“Obama’s negligence and disregard for Alabama families and their jobs is one of the many destructive outcomes of his presidency,” Commissioner Chip Beeker said. “The liberals who helped drive Obama’s agenda continue to put Alabama’s economy at risk. Our task moving forward is to keep the ones affected by this and their families in our hearts and in our prayers.””
