U.S. Representative Nick J. Rahall (D-WV) this evening released the following statement on President Obama's State of the Union Address:

"I support calls for investing more in our own Nation -- in roads and bridges, education, research, and the modern water systems we so obviously need but that the Republican leadership in Congress so vehemently opposes. But, tonight's State of the Union Address was a mixed bag. I depart completely from this Administration when it crafts an energy agenda that sidelines coal and when the White House circumvents Congress to impose its own agenda."
