Wes Tony

Appalachian Citizens’ Law Center works to improve safety conditions for miners in the Appalachian coalfields.

Primarily, ACLC represents miners who suffer workplace discrimination for making safety complaints. These cases are brought under Section 105(c) of the Mine Act, which makes it illegal for a company to retaliate against a miner through harassment, discipline or discharge for engaging in protected safety activities on the job.
