Election 2024 – Yes, Please Count on Me in 2024
February 28, 2024 - As you’re well aware, no other business or industry is impacted quite the same as the coal industry is by Government or Legislative Policies. While every election is important, no election will be as important for “Coal” as the 2024 Presidential Election.
Not only will we be electing a new President but in West Virginia, we will elect a new Governor, US Senator, 2 Congressional Representatives, 2 Supreme Court Justices and all new Executive Officers i.e. Attorney General, Secretary of State, Treasurer, and Auditor. The majority of State Legislators will also be on the ballot.
That’s why we are asking you today to consider a personal contribution to our Political Action Committee — West Virginians For Coal. The maximum individual campaign contribution is $2800 per election or $5600 per election cycle.
If your Company has a PAC, it may contribute up to $5,000 directly to West Virginians For Coal.
We are also asking you and your company to consider a corporate contribution to the “Coal Victory PAC” which is an “Independent Expenditure” designed to expend funds in support of our endorsed candidates. The Coal Victory PAC will sponsor radio ads, direct mail and robo calls independently for candidates running for election.
Please help us so the coal industry will maintain its strong voice in public policy matters affecting coal and energy. All PAC contributions should be mailed to the Association Office at 200 Association Drive, Suite 160, Charleston WV 25311.
Thank you!
Please return this form with your contribution
