- The leading business lobby group in Indiana on Monday rejected a plea from former U.S. Environmental Protection Agency chief Scott Pruitt to back legislation that would keep aging coal-fired power plants online because it would raise electricity rates for local businesses and homeowners.
Hallador Energy Co, the parent of Rail Point, on Saturday announced it hired Pruitt, who resigned as the head of the EPA amid a series of ethics investigations, as a lobbyist who is calling on the state legislature to put a moratorium on new utility generation purchases.The Chamber’s 50-member energy committee unanimously rejected Pruitt’s campaign.
As EPA administrator, Pruitt pursued President Donald Trump’s stated goal of saving coal industry jobs and undoing regulations imposed by President Barack Obama’s administration aimed at slashing carbon emissions.
