SPRINGFIELD — When U.S. Rep. Rodney Davis, R-Taylorville, visited a downstate coal plant outside of his district Friday, he did not turn attention to the energy policies of President Joe Biden. Instead, Davis turned his focus to Democratic Gov. J.B. Pritzker, who is in the midst of negotiations on energy legislation that would force the shuttering of the coal plant, called the Prairie Energy Campus, by 2035 unless it can achieve 90% carbon capture and sequestration. “I challenge Gov. Pritzker to make a trip to Prairie State, tour the power plant and mine, and talk directly to the men and women who work there like I did,” Davis said. “The governor should personally hear what the plant’s closure would mean for the hundreds of hardworking, taxpaying Illinois families he wants to put out of work. State leaders must craft an energy bill that meets Illinois’ energy needs without forcing the closure of vital plants like Prairie State and CWLP.”
