Despite opposition from some environmental groups, according to the Times , congressional Democrats would like to pass this subsidy bill by mid-July. This would be a major boost for a host of coal-mining firms and companies that manufacture CTL-related equipment And there are already signs of movement on the CTL front. Peabody Energy is the largest coal-mining firm in the US and has been the most aggressive in promoting and investing in CTL. The company recently announced a plan to pledge 1 million short tons per year of coal and a $10 million investment in an Illinois CTL plant. Peabody has also been among the most-vocal firms in lobbying Congress for CTL subsidy legislation.
Lightning cracks the blackened sky,
Hear the thunder chariot ride
All brave men with hearts of war
Ride the path of mighty Thor
