John Delaney, Ryan championed the climate package put forward by Washington Gov. Jay Inslee, also seeking the Democrat nomination, as model legislation for a new administration. The plan, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2019\/05\/03\/us\/politics\/jay-inslee-climate-change.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">outlined<\/a> by the New York Times, centers around phasing out coal within 10 years.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cInslee\u2019s plan does not chart a forgiving path for coal,\u201d the paper reported. \u201cIt calls for retiring what it labels as the \u2018increasingly uneconomical U.S. coal fleet\u2019 by 2030.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ohiocoal.com\/information-library\/quick-facts.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">According<\/a> to the Ohio Coal Association, the coal industry employs 33,000 Ohioans whose jobs would be wiped out if the Democrat\u2019s plan were successfully implemented. <\/p>\n<p>Ryan called the proposal in New Hampshire \u201cone of the most amazing plans around climate.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Ohio congressman didn\u2019t have to vote for Inslee\u2019s climate plan, however, to sabotage the state\u2019s coal industry. In August, Ryan <a href=\"https:\/\/timryan.house.gov\/media\/press-releases\/congressman-tim-ryan-votes-pass-inflation-reduction-act\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">voted<\/a> for President Joe Biden\u2019s colossal climate and social spending package <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wsj.com\/articles\/the-inflation-reduction-act-is-anything-but-spending-power-supply-demand-imbalance-restrictions-regulation-11659289812\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">dubiously named<\/a> the Inflation Reduction Act. The law includes a pair of tax credits, the Investment Tax Credit (ITC) and Production Tax Credit (PTC), that pay utilities to shut down coal plants in favor of wind turbines and solar panels.<\/p>\n<p>Ryan\u2019s Republican opponent for the open Senate seat vacated by retiring GOP Sen. Rob Portman, venture capitalist J.D. Vance, has repeatedly knocked the congressman from northeast Ohio as a Washington rubber stamp for the Democrats\u2019 agenda. According to FiveThirtyEight, Ryan has voted with the Biden administration 100 percent of the time over the course of his latest term in Congress.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat rising energy price that people see at the pump, that they see in their utility bills, that our farmers see when they\u2019re paying more for diesel \u2014 that was the direct result of policies enacted by Joe Biden and Nancy Pelosi and supported 100 percent by Time Ryan,\u201d Vance <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nbcnews.com\/politics\/2022-election\/tim-ryan-jd-vance-attack-great-replacement-theory-final-ohio-senate-de-rcna52621\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">said<\/a> in a debate earlier this month.<\/p>\n<p>When asked on Fox News last week about his \u201cfirst order of business\u201d as a U.S. senator, Vance <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/JDVancePress\/status\/1583181500584890368?s=20&#038;t=sZyr0pWZuYT73s_f2uTd1g\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">said<\/a> unleashing American energy was a top priority. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think the border is right up there, but the thing that we really need to do is open up Ohio and America\u2019s energy sector because I think that brings down the cost of inflation,\u201d Vance said. \u201cIt also makes us less reliant on the worst regimes in the world to get our power, to get our energy.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Republican State Rep. Don Jones represents Ohio\u2019s top coal-producing county in the legislature, Harrison County.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs we head into winter, people are paying through the roof to heat their homes,\u201d Jones told The Federalist. \u201cThey have anti-energy liberals like Tim Ryan to thank for that. Any plan to eliminate coal-fired power plants is wrong for southeast Ohio.\u201d<\/p>\n<p> Tristan Justice is the western correspondent for The Federalist.
