February 12, 2026

Washington, D.C.— Senate Western Caucus Chair Cynthia Lummis (R-WY) released the following statement after President Trump signed an executive order directing federal agencies to prioritize coal-powered energy.

“President Trump’s executive order is a monumental win for Wyoming and the entire west,” said Lummis. “After four years of enduring Biden’s regulatory assault on American energy workers, President Trump’s policies have been the dramatic course correction our nation desperately needed. This executive order continues President Trump’s relentless commitment to restoring American energy dominance with western states leading the charge.”
