KFTC sends condolences to families of WV miners

West Virginia University is collecting condolences for the
families of the 29 miners killed in the Upper Big Branch mine explosion last
week. KFTC submitted the following message:

We at Kentuckians For
The Commonwealth send our condolences to the families of the lost miners. Our
organization began in the coalfields of Eastern Kentucky, and our members have always included coal miners, active
and retired, along with many relatives of miners. We know the remarkable
courage and work ethic of miners who risk their lives every day to support
their families and supply energy to our country. They are truly heroes, and the
deaths of your loved ones are a devastating loss for our country and especially
those of us who live in mining communities. You are in our thoughts and
prayers.

These condolences will be compiled for the families of the dead miners, so
please keep your message respectful and supportive. This is not the place to
promote KFTC’s agenda around coal issues.
