Senator Cynthia Lummis (R-WY) hosted U.S. Secretary of Labor Lori Chavez-DeRemer in Kemmerer, Wyoming, where the two toured the Kemmerer Coal Mine and discussed local energy production and employment. The visit provided an opportunity for federal officials to observe coal mining operations and meet with workers in the industry.
“It’s always an honor to welcome Trump administration leaders to Wyoming to meet the hardworking men and women who make the Cowboy State our nation’s energy powerhouse,” said Lummis. “I’m especially grateful that Labor Secretary Chavez-DeRemer took time to visit Kemmerer, where she could see firsthand the skill and dedication of the coal miners who keep this historic operation running day-in and day-out. The Trump administration has consistently stood with Wyoming’s working families, and I will continue fighting to protect these jobs and ensure our skilled workforce can continue powering America with dependable baseload energy.”
A video featuring Senator Lummis and Secretary Chavez-DeRemer at the mine was released as part of their visit.
