Massey Energy Contributes to Americans for Prosperity to Help Save American Jobs
RICHMOND, Va., Dec. 1 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Massey Energy announced today it is making a financial contribution to Americans for Prosperity, an organization committed to educating citizens about economic policy and mobilizing those citizens as advocates in the public policy process.
"Massey Energy is proud to support Americans for Prosperity and the important role they play in educating Americans about economic policy," said Massey Energy Chairman and CEO Don Blankenship. "Americans for Prosperity is playing an important role in the fight against cap-and-trade legislation and other policies that will hurt American workers and drive jobs overseas."
On Labor Day 2009, Massey Energy co-sponsored the largest rally and concert in the nation to speak up for American workers. Nearly 75,000 people attended the Labor Day rally in Logan County, West Virginia. Today's donation to Americans for Prosperity is a continuation of the work Massey is doing on behalf of the people of Appalachia to protect jobs and the American way of life.
