Climate Plan-Indian Tribe

In this May 9, 2008, file photo, a dragline crane operates at the Westmoreland Coal mine northeast of Hardin, Montana. Up to two to two-thirds of the impoverished Crow tribe’s revenue comes from the 15,000-acre Westmoreland Resources mine that sends coal to power plants in the Midwest. The chairman of the coal-dependent Crow Nation wants a break from the Obama administration’s climate proposal and says the pending rule violates the government’s trust responsibility to the Montana tribe.
