Congressman Alex X. Mooney Statement on State of the Union

Congressman Alex X. Mooney released the following statement in reaction to President Donald Trump’s State of the Union address:

“Tonight, President Donald Trump outlined a conservative agenda to make America safer and stronger. I remain committed to helping President Trump implement our shared agenda to make America prosper again.

As I travel across West Virginia, I hear tremendous support for President Trump. Due to recently enacted tax cuts, hard-working West Virginia taxpayers are seeing more money in their paychecks. The coal industry is finally beginning to recover after eight years of attacks from former President Barack Obama and former Speaker Nancy Pelosi.

I was particularly pleased to hear about President Trump’s bold plan to rebuild our nation’s crumbling infrastructure. Everywhere I travel, I see the need for better roads, bridges and infrastructure. I will continue fighting ensure that West Virginia projects like finishing Corridor H, expanding the runway at Yeager Airport and broadband access are included in the President’s infrastructure plan.

Our country continues to face daunting challenges at home and abroad and I am glad that we have a strong leader like President Donald Trump at the helm to guide our nation back to strength and prosperity”, said Rep. Mooney.
