News from Neighboring States for Feb. 18, 2018: Lawmaker says California’s emissions-reducing program is an “excise” tax that unfairly renders Utah coal uncompetitive, in violation of the U.S. Constitution.

Utah’s Coal Hollow strip mine near Alton hopes to tap federal coal near its current operations, which are running out of coal to mine. Lawmakers are proposing to direct $2 million to the mine’s lawyers to wage a legal assault on California’s climate policies, which the say are imposing an unlawful “excise” tax on Utah coal and putting miners out of work./ Photo courtesy of EcoFlight
