Trump plans to sign an executive order aimed at reviving the struggling coal industry.

President Trump plans to sign an executive order Tuesday aimed at expanding the mining and use of coal in the United States, in an effort to revive the struggling industry.

The order will direct federal agencies to remove barriers to coal leasing and mining, loosen environmental reviews of coal projects and explore whether coal-fired electricity could help power new A.I. data centers, according to a White House official. The administration also plans to designate coal a critical mineral, which could speed up federal approval of new mines. And it intends to open more federal land to mining.
