Nitro Construction has put hundreds of people to work in West Virginia, and now they’re expanding into solar energy. “Revolt Energy” installs solar panels on homes & businesses which drastically lowers utility bills for their customers. It was great to attend their open house! https://t.co/h9wnfu9t09

BIG ANNOUNCEMENT: The West Virginia Coal Association UNANIMOUSLY endorsed my 2020 campaign. Its an honor to have the support of thousands of miners, truckers, utility & power plant workers who keep the lights on! Ill continue being a Friend of Coal for the Mountain State! https://t.co/9M1aY5AQpg
Many West Virginians are employed by German companies. I enjoyed meeting with many of their lawmakers in Berlin to discuss energy & manufacturing policies. We also received a briefing from the US Embassy on our relationship moving forward. https://t.co/8RTxEtwAu7
I was a sponsor on West Virginia’s solar energy bill in 2020 which is developing projects as we speak. I’d like to encourage our federal delegation @Sen_JoeManchin & @SenCapito to focus on an all-of-the-above approach to diversifying our state’s energy portfolio. https://t.co/pnkxhklVCE
Improving internet & cell service in West Virginia has been one of my top priorities. We need fiscal conservatives in the State Senate who will spend federal dollars on REAL infrastructure to fix the Mountain State. https://t.co/lgJ3Ih2y68
Lets take a minute to thank West Virginias coal miners & utility workers for showing up despite the threat of #Coronavirus! Theyre putting their lives at risk so you & I can keep our lights on! #FriendsOfCoal #COVID19 https://t.co/b5PQdBYuLK
MAJOR ANNOUNCEMENT: The Higginbotham Campaign will be receiving several big endorsements from national figures. My friend @AndrewRWheeler was a Trump cabinet member<U+2014>he<U+2019>s publicly endorsing our Senate race because he knows we<U+2019>ll work to protect West Virginia energy jobs. https://t.co/64Co9DJEte
Do you believe President Biden<U+2019>s failed policies have made our energy crisis worse? We must unleash West Virginia<U+2019>s energy potential. During my time on the Energy Committee, my goal was to develop as much fossil fuels here to lessen our dependence on countries like Russia. https://t.co/o8tpPFOHb4
This is a devastating loss for West Virginia. As a member of the Energy Committee, I can tell you that a lot of people worked very hard to get this $8 billion pipeline here. https://t.co/zSivNe1u9Z
The only way to prevent an energy crisis in West Virginia like we just saw with the #ColonialPipeline is to have multiple reliable energy sources. We passed one of my bills to protect a free energy market—including traditional fossil fuels & renewables. https://t.co/pQUdECI7Hc
