LIVE: President Trump makes announcement on coal

Our action will allow these facilities to invest in upgrades that will extend their operational lives for decades into the future, reinforce the reliability of our electric grid, which is really the biggest beneficiary, and most importantly, keep electricity prices very low for the American people. This brings the total number of coal plants that we have saved during my administration. Just like when we said we saved 25 water fountains. Think of this. (12:43–13:04)
